Build of postgresql 8.2 beta 2 failure

[Carl Norden <dragon(at)wintermaze(dot)com>]

I know you're collecting results for beta testing, so I thought I'd pass on the error I ran into.  This may have failed just because I'm running an old version of RedHat (7.1)

When I tried to build postgresql 8.2 beta 2, the compile failed with these errors:

gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wendif-labels -fno-strict-aliasing  -fpic -shared -Wl,-soname,libpq.so.5 -Wl,--version-script=exports.list  fe-auth.o fe-connect.o fe-exec.o fe-misc.o fe-print.o fe-lobj.o fe-protocol2.o fe-protocol3.o pqexpbuffer.o pqsignal.o fe-secure.o md5.o ip.o wchar.o encnames.o noblock.o pgstrcasecmp.o thread.o strlcpy.o  -L../../../src/port -lcrypt -Wl,-rpath,'/usr/local/sw/postgresql/postgresql-8.2b2/lib' -o libpq.so.5.0

I may try poking at it more after dinner to see if I can fix it myself, but just thougt I'd get you more results.  (And thanks for all the work in making all the previous versions such a great product!)
