I grabbed all patches from ftr.postgresql.org/pub/patches and applied them
(it's kinda confusing, some have to be applied *in* the src/ directory,
others *outside* the src dir). After this, I wasstill unable to
apply that patch from vadim.

I applied these patches:

-rw-r--r-- 1 postgres wheel 5820 Aug 12 07:02 btree_adj-980730
-rw-r--r-- 1 postgres wheel 43208 Aug 12 07:02 configure-980430
-rw-r--r-- 1 postgres wheel 39675 Aug 12 07:02 linux_elf.patch-980421

The linux one isn't important for me, but I thought what the heck I'll do
it anyways.
