Why in the world is set_pglocale_pgservice() located in src/port/path.c? I was just trying to find out why ecpg is failing on the Darwin buildfarm members since I modified the arrangements for pulling in extra libraries for AIX. The answer is that ecpglib needs path.c for last_dir_separator(), and path.c contains set_pglocale_pgservice(), which pulls in both exec.c and bindtextdomain/textdomain/gettext. IOW libintl gets pulled into ecpglib links for no reason whatsoever --- it certainly isn't being used by ecpglib itself.
I think set_pglocale_pgservice should either be moved to exec.c or put into its own separate src/port/ file.
