Can't build libpq test example

Can anyone help me with this problem?

I have installed postgresql-7.2.1 and am trying to compile one of the
test programs from the directory src/test/examples.

I am running an old version of SCO Openserver 5

I am using the following command:

cc testlibpq.c -I/usr/local/pgsql/include -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lpq
-otestlibpq

I receive the following error messages:

undefined first referenced
symbol in file
PQfinish testlibpq.o
PQsetdbLogin testlibpq.o
PQstatus testlibpq.o
PQerrorMessage testlibpq.o
PQexec testlibpq.o
PQresultStatus testlibpq.o
PQclear testlibpq.o
PQnfields testlibpq.o
PQfname testlibpq.o
PQgetvalue testlibpq.o
PQntuples testlibpq.o
ld fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to testlibpq

Strange, it looks OK to me with the -lpq. My guess is that it is some
SCO strangeness but I am not sure what. Do an 'nm' on libpq.so and see
if those symbols are in there.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)

And, are you sure you have the right libpq in /usr/local/pgsql/lib ?
