Re: php4 + postgresql

Deary me.  You fail to read the documentation perchance?
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.openbsd.php

i repeat: if you are unfamiliar with the ports system, why not
use binary packages and save yourself trouble?

you haven't said what architecture you are running; the compiler
bug only affects sparc64.  the bug you quote below is only regarding
restarts, and not anything else.
