Perhaps the fix was just > so it compiled with SSL. I think it's only broken when you fiddle with certificates. Unless something broke fairly recently.

It worked in my simple tests using psql, but I did nothing fancy with certificates. //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
