Typically, this results from some library not being properly
recognized.  On AIX, for instance, there has been a tendancy for
pthreads to be needed, and for it to not be included, and that problem
first kicks in with the PQunescapeBytea test.

I usually pass a whole lot more than just --with-pgconfigdir to my
./configure runs; it's probably not finding libpq by the "unvirtue" of
not having a --with-pglibdir option.
