-From: Maxim Kochetkov <fido_max@inbox.ru>
-Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2024 10:04:05 +0300
-Subject: [PATCH] Fix compile without threads
-
-All mutexes should be wrapped by #ifdef ENABLE_THREAD_SAFETY.
-
-Fixes: https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commit;h=52afe563206e753f4c45c014fee2459ad0855826
-Signed-off-by: Maxim Kochetkov <fido_max@inbox.ru>
-Signed-off-by: Maxim Kochetkov <m.kochetkov@yadro.com>
-Upstream: N/A, as --disable-thread-safety will disappear in PostgreSQL 17.
