Buildfarm members platypus and cuckoo are currently failing because dblink is picking up the wrong libpq (and it appears that incorrect libraries are also being picked up in the ecpg libraries, although this isn't causing a buildfarm failure.) Alternatively, if we can't say --with-libraries=/foo/bar when /foo/bar contains possibly conflicting libraries, that should be tested for at configure time. cheers andrew ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly

This was considered a good idea why exactly? I didn't like it myself but it fixed a problem with a build farm machine, and no one objected, so I applied it, but it seemed pretty strange to be reversing those.
