Probably only with some degree of trickery.

In the "1.0" series, it needs a copy of the PostgreSQL source tree. I
believe it uses that to refer it to where its components should be
installed.

In 1.1 (in CVS HEAD), it takes some advantage of the "pgxs" support,
so that you may instead point to the #includes, libs, and binaries.
But that's definitely a "work in progress," as opposed to something
that is complete.

All I can say for certain is that getting this sort of thing to work
on AIX is not fun, whatever the approach :-(.
