Hello,

We are in the process of bootstrapping a Debian port for the
riscv64 architecture (https://wiki.debian.org/RISC-V). It happens that
native spinlocks are not yet supported on RISC-V. Would it be possible
to pass --disable-spinlocks to the configure script like already done
on alpha? This is a first step which allows postgresql to be compiled
and pass the testsuite on riscv64.

Thanks,
Aurelien
