Me too. I tried to fix it a couple of days ago, but seem to have only
moved the problem around :-(

I don't think we should import dirmod.o into libpq; it's too big.
I suggest either
(1) Assume that we don't need "safe" stat for frontend code, and
compile the safestat stuff only when !defined(FRONTEND)
(2) Split safestat into its own file and include that in libpq.
I'm not touching it myself though, since I have no way to test it.
