Some compilation problem found while compiling
PostgreSql-6.4.2 on OSF1 V4.0 878 alpha

1. configure (problem because . not in $PATH)
 743c743
< . ./conftest.sh
---
> . conftest.sh

2. gram.y did not compilei by yacc (on FreeBSD too)

# woland(dms)~/postgresql-6.4.2/src/backend/parser>yacc -d gram.y 
# yacc: f - maximum table size exceeded

fixed by using bison 

3.  src/interfaces/libpq and all dependent sources (like perl5 interface)
didn't compile because native cc don't support tag const
fixed by
   #define const 
in apropriate places

4. (old bug) Inastalation fail if prefix directory 
(e.g /usr/local/pgsql) doesn't exists
