Hmm, PG_CONFIG is currently tied to the --with-libpq configure option,
so that's only available if you build the driver with libpq. Would need
to separate that into a separate option.
(A slightly off-topic gripe: I just noticed that the #define constant is
called "NOT_USE_LIBPQ", which makes for some odd double-negatives when
most of the code blocks dependent on that are "#ifndef NOT_USE_LIBPQ".
Would be better to have "USE_LIBPQ" and "#ifdef USE_LIBPQ". I think I'll
go fix that..)

Ok, great.
