Yes, this is a known glitch in the RPMs --- they install a symlink
rather than the file it should have referenced :-(. Remove the symlink
and replace it with a copy of src/include/port/linux.h, which you can
get from the PG 7.0.2 source RPM or source tarball. (But it's short,
so I'll throw in the 7.0.2 version just to save you a download.)

I think this is fixed for 7.0.3, if not, then 7.1 for sure.
