Maybe I did something wrong with the configure options. That bug is
reproducible with the pristine upstream 8.1.1 tarball and doing:

./configure --prefix=/usr --mandir="\${prefix}/share/man" \
--sysconfdir=/etc --libdir="\${prefix}/lib/postgresql/8.1/lib" \
--libexecdir="\${prefix}/lib/postgresql-8.1/lib" \
--mandir=\${prefix}/share/postgresql/8.1/man \
--with-docdir=\${prefix}/share/doc/postgresql-doc-8.1 \
--datadir=\${prefix}/share/postgresql/8.1 \
--bindir=\${prefix}/lib/postgresql/8.1/bin \
--includedir=\${prefix}/include/postgresql/8.1
make
make check

However, it does *not* happen when I do not specify any configure
options at all. I'll try to narrow down the problematic change
further, but can you already see what the problem is here?

Thanks,

Martin
