Hmm, const is also problem on solaris. dtrace generates probe.h file and
eats const. It generates following noise on solaris build:

"postgres.c", line 554: warning: argument #1 is incompatible with
prototype:
prototype: pointer to char : "../../../src/include/utils/probes.h",
line 582
argument : pointer to const char

IIRC, it was discussed. I cc Robert. He should know answer why const is
ignored.
