building 7.4.1 (on linux) with --disable-shared

[David Garamond]

Does it currently work? src/backend/utils/mb/conversion_proc s/*/ is not
building anything, and 'make install' fails because it tries to copy
*.so files.

For sufficiently small values of "current", it builds. You do realize
you won't have any PL languages or conversions, I trust.

* src/backend/utils/mb/conversion_proc s/Makefile: If we don't have
shared libraries, we don't have conversions. Make
conversion_crea te.sql be empty (except for a helpful comment) in
this case. Allows initdb to succeed with --disable-shared.

* src/: backend/utils/mb/conversion_proc s/proc.mk,
pl/plperl/GNUmakefile, pl/plpython/Makefile, pl/tcl/Makefile: Fix
bit-rot in support for building with --disable-shared. This patch
gets us past 'make install', but initdb still fails for lack of
conversion libraries ...

Thanks, maybe I'll try this on 7.4.2. Yes, I was just trying out
different configure options. I notice that --disable-shared means
differently than in, one example, Ruby. In Ruby, --disable-shared means
the binaries (i.e. /usr/bin/ruby) are linked statically with the runtime
(libruby.so), but all *.so files are still produced.
