Hi, hopefully someone can help with this since postgres is listed as working
with AIX, and some people seem to have got the release candidates working
with AIX.

When I compile postgres using gmake and gcc 2.95.3 I get the error below -
I'm just using a straighforward ./configure, I've tried various switches but
none have made a difference.

It seems like one of the libraries is missing an -lsomething during the
compile, but I've no idea what.

ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .PQresultErrorField
ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .last_path_separator
ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .PQsetNoticeReceiver
ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .PQfreemem
collect2: ld returned 8 exit status
gmake[4]: *** [libecpg.so] Error 1

Thanks for any help, I do know a bit about C, gcc, and AIX, but not enough
to figure out this issue...
