When I build PostgreSQL 7.1.1 from the port on FreeBSD 4.3, pg_config
gets built with a syntax error in the "val_configure=..." line.  It
looks like multiple levels of single quotes, where different kinds of
quotes should have been used.

This gives an error when pg_config is executed, and the --configure
option produces no output.

Thanks!

Here is the beginning of pg_config:

#! /bin/sh

# This shell script saves various pieces of information about the
# installed version of PostgreSQL.  Packages that interface to
# PostgreSQL can use it to configure their build.
