It sounds like it's an Ubuntu linker bug, though - not really anything
to do with us.

I realize the pg lists are not the place to discuss particular distribution bugs. However, because the bug occurred only in a particular pg source tree and not another, I spent a lot of time looking in the wrong place. This could happen to somebody else as well. Since searching for some keywords in the pg lists returned 0 results I thought lets change that, to possibly safe somebody else some time.

Sorry to cause confusion. I'll try to be more prudent in the future.
