Hi all,

we have some kind of databases organised in different files, which are
produced with Microsoft Access.

My thought first thought was:
What about converting them to a real database and using e.g. postgresql
(latest 7.0.3) on a 5k/240 as a server. Regarding the docs at postgresql
version 7.0.3 will run on sparc under NetBSD-1.5. So, I thought, it
should run as well on pmax.

Well, fetched me the bulk source tar from their ftp server and tried a
compile.

During configure everything went well, but stucks during compile with

gmake[3]: Entering directory
`/usr/src/local/postgresql/postgresql-7.0.3/src/backend/storage/buffer'
gcc -I../../../include -I../../../backend   -O2 -pipe -Wall
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -I../..   -c -o s_lock.o
s_lock.c
s_lock.c:71: warning: no previous prototype for `s_lock'
s_lock.c: In function `s_lock':
s_lock.c:74: warning: implicit declaration of function `TAS'
s_lock.c: At top level:
s_lock.c:149: warning: `tas_dummy' defined but not used
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:220: Error: opcode requires -mips2 or greater `ll'
{standard input}:222: Error: opcode requires -mips2 or greater `sc'

Going into the docs i realized, that there is a hint that TAS (dunno,
what it is) isn't supported (at all ?? - or not implemented). What about
getting postgresql running on pmax under 1.5 ?

Thanx.
