That is not the issue but thanks anyway for the effort. The problem pertained:
$ gcc -fpic -c -I/usr/local/pgsql/include/ cfunc.c
In file included from cfunc.c:2:
/usr/local/pgsql/include/postgres.h:49: utils/elog.h: No such file or directory
/usr/local/pgsql/include/postgres.h:50: utils/palloc.h: No such file or directory

So I actually used the postgres.h file from the src directory to make it work.
$ gcc -fpic -c -I/usr/local/tmp/postgresql-7.1.2/src/include/ cfunc.c

What I'm missing is: did I mis-build something? How come the postgres.h and rest .h files weren't properly installed?

thanks,
thalis

atleast for the php build, postgres_fe.h should do just fine (even though the opening comments in postgres_fe.h suggest
thatpostgres.h should be in the same dir and used instead)
