At this point the Irix port is nearly complete. There are two problems
that remain.
First, the snprintf function does not process the %lld format
correctly. Frankly, there is no reason to use it in
src/backend/utils/adt/int8.c because there is not chance of exceeding
the supplied buffer. sprintf is safe in this circumstance and works
correctly.
Second, the SGI C++ compiler does not recognize #include <string>,
and it fails.
I still have to run a multiprocess test of the new locking code,
and will let you know the results when I have them.
Overall, PostgreSQL is looking good!

Are you talking about the Irix snprintf, our our ports/snprintf.c?
