                     ^^^^^^^^^ this should work

1. Something weird, as:

these dirs are used when looking for libpq.so:
/usr/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/local/pgsql/lib /opt/postgres/lib

these dirs are used when looking for libpqxx.so:
/usr/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/local/pqxx/lib

You may want to look at config.log file; e.g. I've got this output:
----------------------------------------
configure:34496: checking for PostgreSQL... Step 1 of 4
configure: 34511: /usr/local/include/libpq-fe.h
configure: 34511: /usr/include/libpq-fe.h
configure: 34511: /usr/include/pgsql/libpq-fe.h
taking that
configure:34520: result: /usr/include/pgsql
configure:34527: checking for PostgreSQL... Step 2 of 4
configure: 34542: /usr/local/lib/libpq.so
configure: 34542: /usr/lib/libpq.so
taking that

configure: 34574: /usr/local/pqxx/include/pqxx/pqxx
configure: 34574: /usr/local/include/pqxx/pqxx
taking that
configure:34583: result: /usr/local/include
configure:34590: checking for PostgreSQL... Step 4 of 4
configure: 34605: /usr/local/lib/libpqxx.so
taking that
