So, I removed dfmgr.o, and remade it:

[tbs(at)hubertus fmgr]$ make
gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wmissing-declarations -I../../../../src/include -D_GNU_SOURCE
-DPKGLIBDIR=\"/opt/postgres-7.4.1//lib\" -DDLSUFFIX=\".so\" -c -o dfmgr.o
dfmgr.c
/usr/bin/ld -r -o SUBSYS.o dfmgr.o fmgr.o funcapi.o

The Makefile.global looks ok (I didn't touch it), excerpts:

...
prefix := /opt/postgres-7.4.1/
...
libdir := ${exec_prefix}/lib
pkglibdir = $(libdir)
ifeq "$(findstring pgsql, $(pkglibdir))" ""
ifeq "$(findstring postgres, $(pkglibdir))" ""
override pkglibdir := $(pkglibdir)/postgresql
endif
endif
...

I did a "make install" following the rebuild of dfmgr.o -- and now things
work!

I am wondering how I came into this situation? Trying to recall my first
steps; I think that I did a ./configure first (it ran to the end) -- and
then I ran ./configure again with the options. Hmm... I will make a complete
new build (from a fresh tarball and directory) and see what happens.

I am not sure this was any help to you? Anyway - thanks for pointing to the
source of my problem!

/Thomas.

Evidently. So, somehow src/backend/utils/fmgr/dfmgr.o got compiled with
the wrong value of PKGLIBDIR. You should look in src/Makefile.global to
check that it has the correct setting for pkglibdir (note difference in
case). Also try going to src/backend/utils/fmgr, removing dfmgr.o, and
saying "make" to see what -D switch gets passed by the makefile.
