This actually is NOT a PostgreSQL bug. When you call make like this you
do not ADD your define, but REPLACE the CPPFLAGS entry in Makefile.
Usually CPPFLAGS contains -D_GNU_SOURCE which is needed to get
LONG_LONG_MIN defined.

If you need this define, please use

make CPPFLAGS="-D_GNU_SOURCE -DALLOW_ABSOLUTE_DBPATHS" allo

or some other way that ensures the entry in Makefile.global is not
discarded.
