True, I cannot find this in the current docs - that statement about the
conditional compile was from some documentation I found from googling
"pltcl_modules pltcl_modfuncs"
I went back to the site i found it and snooped around and saw that it was a
copy of docs from 1998.
Sorry about the confusion, but I don't know whether the pltcl.dll (in other
words, the Windows postgres installation) supports the "unknown" command,
and pulling up this doc (in error, once again - sorry) came out of
desperation for looking for more information on the creating and maintenace
of those tables (pltcl_modules pltcl_modfuncs), and why I don't have the
support scrtipts for them in my Windows installation.
