Ok.. so I figured out how to compile it...
And it seems to be working.. the archiver is coping the WAL files into
/tmp, I see entries in pgsql_archivelogs with status = 3, and I am able to
status the client from bconsole. I have set up the two jobs (:wal and :db).

What is happening is that the jobs show "Success" status, but everything is
0 bytes (no data being saved).
