Hey,
I installed PostgreSQL source for the first time a few weeks ago. I am now just getting to my first pull-and-reinstall. I run make again at the top of the repo and I get:
git @ 7fe3083f4
gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Werror=vla -Wendif-labels -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wimplicit-fallthrough=3 -Wformat-security -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -fexcess-precision=standard -Wno-format-truncation -O2 [...] -L../../src/port -L../../src/common -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-rpath,'/usr/local/pgsql/lib',--enable-new-dtags -Wl,-E -lpthread -lrt -ldl -lm -o postgres

I then ran ./configure again and got the same result. Ubuntu 18.04.
Simply checking out and re-making 3a990a12635 (plus my two patches) works just fine.
Please advise, fixing stuff in the C parts of the codebase is not a skill I've picked up yet - been focused on docs and tests.
Thanks!
