Well, that doesn't solve the circular build dependency issue then. Before you can install PHP you already need PostgreSQL (libpq) installed. So nothing relevant to that issue has changed, as far as I can see.
Uhhmmm no? You only need libpq installed if you want postgresql client side support but I will double check.
Actually as I think about it... that is not the case even now. When we download the php source the base configure before compile is:
./configure --disable-all
Thus no use of PostgreSQL whatsoever.
