the version of PostgreSQL - 7.2.1

==========================================================
and the version of pgsql_perl5 This is version 1.8.0 of pgsql_perl5 (previously called pg95perl5).

as included in the PostgreSQL - 7.2.1 distribution.

==========================================================
What I did:

I ran ./configure --with-perl gmake

I got to a point that complained about getopt.h: file not found

I located  /usr/src/contrib/binutils/include/getopt.h
and copied it to /usr/include

I ran gmake again

I eventually got this error:

gmake[3]: Entering directory
`/usr/ports/databases/postgresql7/work/postgresql-7.2.1/src/bin/pg_dump'

getopt_long is defined in the getopt.h I copied.

Suggestions?

I would like to see the exact output on the screen together with some
context.  Not having a getopt.h file is not necessarily a reason for
failure.

You can't just copy files around and hope things will work.

... 'coz they won't.

Declared, not defined.  That's the problem.

Yes, I realized all of this after I hit send. I'm going to upgrade FreeBSD to
a more recent version...
