Part of the problem is that Postgresql assumes FreeBSD == -m486, since
I have absolutely no 'configure/automake' clue it's where I faltered
when initially trying to compile on FreeBSD.

I have access to a FreeBSD box through the FreeBSD project and would
like to have another shot at it, but I was hoping one of the guys
more initmate with autoconf could lend me a hand.
