Here are patches needed to complie under AIX 4.2.
I changed configure.in, pqcomm.c, config.h.in, and fe-connect.c.
Also I had to install flex because lex did not want to translate pgc.l.

If someone can make me a *short* code stub that fails to compile depending
on which is used, I can add this to configure...
