The snapshot I downloaded today failed compilation:
gcc -I../../include -I/usr/include/ncurses -I/usr/include/readline 
-Dlinuxalpha -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -Wall 
-Wmissing-prototypes -I../../interfaces/libpq   -c pg_dump.c -o pg_dump.o
In file included from ../../include/access/strat.h:17,

                 from pg_dump.c:65:

gmake[2]: *** [pg_dump.o] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr1/home/olly/mypackages/pgsql/src/bin/pg_dump'


I made a link from src/backend/fmgr.h to src/include and the compilation
then finished.

I note that there is also a backend/utils/fmgr.h which is the same size
as backend/fmgr.h but not the same file.

Install failed:

Prefixing `install' with `-' in the makefile cured this; the directory
contains info files but no man pages.

If the info file has been/will be converted we could remove the doc dir
completely.

The info file has been translated into the upcoming hardcopy and html docs. Marc,
can you blow away the ecpg/doc directory? I've already disabled the make on the doc
area in stuff I committed last night so things should build OK now.
