Is it really necessary to make us go visit some random website for a
two-line error log?
For the archives (since I bet the above link will be 404 soon), the
failure looked like this:
2014-07-03 12:08:42 PDT FATAL: could not load library "/usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/lib/pg_webrtc.so":
/usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/lib/pg_webrtc.so:undefined symbol: _Z30BackgroundWorkerUnblockSignalsv
It looks to me like you need extern "C" { ... } around the
Postgres header files you're importing, so that the C++
compiler won't think it should mangle function names
declared therein.
