Thanks for the info. > Actually, I experimented with a "threaded" PostgreSQL server, I added LDFLAGS="-lpthreads" to the PG configure options and suddenly my module that's linked to libraries also linked with libpthread.so started working. The dlopen(3) man page doesn't say this as a working constellation. Best regards, Zoltán Böszörményi -- Bible has answers for everything.
