Hi, and thank you for a great ORDBMS.

The configure.in file assumes that FreeBSD 1.x and 2.x have ELF
capability.

While this is true to some extent, this assumption makes it impossible
to compile PostgreSQL 7.1 and 7.2devel without the --disable-shared
switch during configuration.

Below you'll find my diff to configure.in, rev. 1.126.
