LINUX_ELF

no idea where this should be defined. Since I run quite a lot of beta-test
software like gcc 2.8.1 this may be a system problem. Or should this be
defined inside the PostgreSQL tree?

I'm not quite sure, but any references to LINUX_ELF should have
been removed and replaced by compiler defined values...its possibly some
were overlooked?

They are still in all those Makefile.in's that created shared libraries.

Yes. I think the patch from Christian removed the symbol, but not
everwhere. When I saw the problem report on it, I saw the problem, but
no one else made any mention of it when I asked so I though LINUX_ELF
was perhaps defined by the linux compiler.
