But the developer of postgresql told me that postgresql can not be ported to win95.Do you think so? If you have made some progress,please tell me.I try to port postgresql-v6.1 to win95. But when I run configure(postgresql),it reports the following errors: loading cache ./config.cache checking host system type... i386-pc-cygwin32 ************************************************************* configure does not currently recognize your operating system, therefore you must do a manual configuration of: cygwin32 Please contact scrappy AT hub DOT org to see about rectifying this, including the above 'checking host system type...' line ************************************************************* Then I change the configure file by adding line "cygwin32*) PORTNAME='cygwin32';;" and re-run configure with default argument. It then reports: -ASSERT CHECKING disabled checking for gcc... (cached) gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables. I have checked gnuwin32 and found gcc. I don't know why it report this error.May you help me?
