DBD-Pg-0.73 make failed

While trying to make DBD-Pg-0.73 I found such error:

*** Error code 1

I think that cc doesn't like pointers like
"imp_dbh->conn->status", "imp_dbh->conn->Pfout" and so.

Now I simply commented almost all body of dbd_db_ping()

FreeBSD 2.2.7, PostgreSQL-6.4
gcc version 2.7.2.1

I used before Pg module but I need persistent connections
so I have to use mod_perl and Apache::DBI.

With best regards,

Is there a newer version of DBD-Pg?  That one evidently doesn't work
with Postgres 6.4.

The incomplete-type messages appear because the contents of the conn
struct are no longer visible to calling applications.  You could
work around that by including <libpq-int.h>; but if the thing is
trying to touch field Pfout then it's going to lose anyway, because
that field no longer exists (libpq doesn't use a stdio file to contact
the backend anymore).

I had the idea that someone had updated DBD-Pg for 6.4, but I don't
know for sure.

            regards, tom lane

I'm using FreeBSD-2.2.7-Release with Postgres 6.4 and DBD-Pg-0.89 quite happily.

I'd grab the latest version and the latest version of DBI from www.cpan.org
