When I was first writing the build script that Tom referenced earlier,
I too made the mistake of not creating arch-specific config headers. I
found that the build worked fine, and even initdb ran and I could
start the server and login. pgAdmin then promptly fell over because it
tried to use a view which had been mis-compiled (in postgres, not by
gcc) as it was treating my ppc box as a little-endian platform. Of
course, the build worked fine on an intel box.
So it's entirely possible that libpq may be working OK, whilst the
server is broken horribly.
