Maybe this is related to the thread [HACKERS] regression failure in CVS
HEAD

I've installed postgresql-7.3.2 on HP-UX yesterday.

When running 'gmake -C regress check'
the process does not return.

File ./src/test/regress/regression.out shows

See doc/FAQ_HPUX:

: gmake SHELL=/bin/ksh check

: If you see that the tests have stopped making progress and only a shell

: above command.

Thanks. 'gmake SHELL=/bin/ksh check' now reports "All 89 tests passed."
