Wait a couple more days.  Linux uses different lexical scanner
(flex) and grammar parser (byacc) than standard unix, and
Postgres has some hacks to the parser, which I had to redo to
get things working with Linux.

They haven't been included in the Postgres distribution, yet,
but I am in the process of cleaning things up, so that these
can be included without a thousend #ifdef __linux__/#endif
combo's.
