Note that Peter Eisentraut has argued that this may not actually be a true
bug...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Building a package A against a package B that is not properly installed is 
obviously not expected to work.  Installing package B with DESTDIR set counts 
as "not properly installed".[*]  So I don't really see the issue here.  Now 
since Bernd has supposedly taken the patches from my Debian package, there is 
probably something else going on, but the description in the bug doesn't 
convey that.

[*] -- If you are not following: The proper way to do that would be to install 
package B with DESTDIR, wrap it up into some sort of package (rpm, deb, tgz, 
etc.) from there, then install that package into the real location, then 
build package A.

On third thought, since a PostgreSQL installation is supposed to be 
relocatable (cf. Windows), this should actually work, but I would ask Bernd 
to post a more complete bug report.
