25年前的今天，在PostgreSQL中

Irix 是 PostgreSQL 支持的众多“大型机”UNIX 平台之一。此 FAQ 更新包含了安装PostgreSQL 6.3 的说明，详细介绍了针对 Irix 问题的各种解决方法。

1.10)   How do I install PostgreSQL V6.3 under Irix 6.x?

        Irix 6.2-6.4 has a bug in ld which mishandles the addresses of
        static procedures when object files are assembled into
        larger object files using 'ld -r'. This bug has been reported
        to Silicon Graphics. 

        Depending on your Irix installation you may also encounter
        2 other problems detailed below: Conflict in C standards,
        Conflict in library functions.

在PostgreSQL 9.4 中删除了对 Irix 的支持（提交ea91a6be）。

    Allow parsing expressions with ") -" (scan.l, scan.c only).
    Make "TABLE" optional in "LOCK TABLE" command
     and "... INTO TABLE..." clause.
    Explicitly parse CREATE SEQUENCE options to allow a negative integer
     as an argument; this is an artifact of unary minus handling in scan.l.
    Add "PASSWORD" as an allowed column identifier.
    These fixes will require a "make clean install" but not a dump/reload.
