PostgreSQL从8.3.x升级到8.4.0后，pgpool-II的最新版2.2.2无法编译通过，报以下错误：
sed 's,MODULE_PATHNAME,$libdir/pgpool-recovery,g' pgpool-recovery.sql.in >pgpool-recovery.sql

gmake: *** [pgpool-recovery.o] Error 1

经过查找，应该是PostgreSQL 8.4.0的include头文件有了一些改动造成。
解决方法：
在pgpool-II 2.2.2的源代码文件 sql/pgpool-recovery/pgpool-recovery.c 第40行加入：
extern Datum textout (PG_FUNCTION_ARGS);
即可！
