[postgis-devel] RECHECK not supported in PsotgreSQL HEAD any more?

[Jorgen Austvik - Sun Norway]

Hi,

I tried running the PostGIS tests against PostgreSQL HEAD, and got this 
error message:

--------8<---------------8<---------------8<---------------8<-------
psql:lwpostgis.sql:1040: ERROR:  RECHECK is no longer supported
HINT:  Update your data type.
psql:lwpostgis.sql:1053: ERROR:  current transaction is aborted, 
commands ignored until end of transaction block
...
--------8<---------------8<---------------8<---------------8<-------

It seems that it is OK to remove the RECHECKs?:

The applied patch removes the RECHECKs (and all the tests pass without 
them on RHEL 5.1), but I have no idea whether that is the correct thing 
to do or not - so please don't apply them without looking into the 
matter ;-) (They might be needed on earlier versions of PsotgreSQL?)
