I'm trying to replicate some databases from a PostgreSQL 7.3.4 and 7.3.7
installation on Tru64 V5.1 master to a 7.4 installation on SuSE 9.1 Linux.  
I can get the slonik commands to configure a cluster and subscribe to a
set, but when I start the slon daemon on the master node (tru64) I get the 
following output

MASTER : 
CONFIG main: local node id = 1
CONFIG main: loading current cluster configuration
CONFIG storeNode: no_id=2 no_comment='Slave node, ukssdc-db1'
CONFIG storePath: pa_server=2 pa_client=1 pa_conninfo="dbname=digisondes
host=ukssdc-db1.stp.rl.ac.uk user=postgres" pa_ connretry=10
CONFIG storeListen: li_origin=2 li_receiver=1 li_provider=2
CONFIG storeSet: set_id=1 set_origin=1 set_comment='digisondes tables'
CONFIG main: configuration complete - starting threads
CONFIG enableNode: no_id=2

and on the 

SLAVE : 

CONFIG main: local node id = 2
CONFIG main: loading current cluster configuration
CONFIG storeNode: no_id=1 no_comment='Master node, c1'
CONFIG storePath: pa_server=1 pa_client=2 pa_conninfo="dbname=digisondes

CONFIG storeListen: li_origin=1 li_receiver=2 li_provider=1
CONFIG storeSet: set_id=1 set_origin=1 set_comment='digisondes tables'

CONFIG storeSubscribe: sub_set=1 sub_provider=1 sub_forward='f'
WARN   remoteWorker_wakeup: node 1 - no worker thread

CONFIG enableNode: no_id=1


Presumably this is the --enable-thread-safety feature of libpq seen on 
Solaris and AIX. Is there a fix for Postgresql version 7.3.4/7.3.7?
