Thanks Tom,

./compile in the src directory created pg_config.h and pg_config_os.h for me under \
/src/include and my build completed successfully.  ( forgot to CC the list when I \
thanked Peter.)  FreeBSD ports aren't prebuilt packages, it's src that you run "make \
clean install" against.  For some reason during Make, FreeBSD puts postgres.h under \
/src/include, but not the other two anywhere...go figure.
