It took me almost a full HOUR to get libpq to build under AIX 3.1.5 on
an rs6k. I'm not even sure if I can duplicate the bizarre maze of
compiler options, switches and values that let me fool this ridiculous
excuse for a software development environment into letting me do such an
awful thing, except that at one point I had to become root and edit
/usr/include/math.h to keep this piece of SH*T from complaining
endlessly about the redeclaration of class(), which I could NOT, for the
LIFE of me figure out. I haven't even THOUGHT about building the
postmaster or backend on this beast given what I went through to get
libpq to work. I can make what I've got available, if anyone wants it...
it seems to work (with the backend running on a remote sun4).

Cheers,
