Not sure why there'd be an extra build step; I'd envision it more like "configure ... --with-ecpg" and the main build step either does it or not. You would need to make the ecpg-check step conditional, though, so it's moot: we'd have to fix the buildfarm first in any case, unless it's default-enabled which would seem a bit odd. regards, tom lane
