Subject: Remove useless test for time field in pg_control being > 0.  We don't
X-Git-Tag: REL7_2_BETA1~314
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1481b3b28b4ff250bbe31da9628dafa2b7e6687a;p=postgresql

Remove useless test for time field in pg_control being > 0.  We don't
need this, and it will create a Y2038 failure.  Per report from David
Wheeler, who is evidently running on a platform where time_t is already
negative.
