The installation instructions for client-only say to do this:

gmake -C src/bin install
gmake -C src/interfaces install
gmake -C doc install

However, this leaves you with incomplete headers. The following
should be added to the instructions. This was true for 7.1.1, 7.1.2,
and 7.1.3. I don't know if 7.2 has addressed this already.

cp src/include/postgres_ext.h /usr/local/pgsql/include/

After this, you can actually compile C code that uses postgres libs,
in particular the DBD::Pg module for Perl.
