I've made a diff against the 7.0beta1 tree that accomplishes several things:

        1) adds NetBSD shared lib support on both ELF and a.out platforms

        2) replaces "-L$(LIBPQDIR) -lpq" with "$(LIBPQ)" defined in
           Makefile.global.  This makes it much easier to build stuff in
           the source tree after you've already installed the libraries.

        3) adds TEMPLATEDIR in Makefile.global that indicates where the
           database templates are stored.  This separates the template files
           from real libraries that are installed in $(LIBDIR).
        4) changes include order of <readline/readline.h> and <readline.h>.
           The latest GNU readline installs its headers under a readline
           subdirectory.

In addition to applying the patch below the following files need to be copied:

        backend/port/dynloader:
                bsd.h -> netbsd.h
                bsd.c -> netbsd.c
        include/port:
                bsd.h -> netbsd.h
        makefiles:
                Makefile.bsd -> Makefile.netbsd

It would be great to see this incorporated into the source tree before
the 7.0 release is cut.

        Thanks!

Sorting for the inet data type randomly returns the wrong result
when you have networks with the same prefix, but different netmasks.

This is due to the fact that occassionally there is random
(uninitialized?)
data in the extra bits past the point where the netmask cares about
them.

ie (real data from a real live database):

  10.0/10 == 00001010.00100000.00100000.00011000
  10.0/11 == 00001010.00000000.00000000.00000000
                        ^ Bad data, normally never seen

The v4bitncmp() function was only taking one bit length argument so
it would determine that the networks were different, even though
they really aren't (and the netmask test wouldn't be used).  This
ONLY happens if the tuple with the longer bit length is used as the
ip_bits() for the v4bitncmp call AND there happens to be junk data
in place in the shorter tuple.  Odd and random, but I saw it happen
a couple times so...
