Tom, I guess I don't understand the point of having a different pg_config.h
in my user/include/postgresql directory than the postgresql server that I
am running.  You mentioned building client code that would reference the
pg_config.h in user/include/postgresql.  A couple of questions:

What type of client code are you referring to?
What is the point of having a pg_config.h for a server that I am not even
running?
