While packaging Ur/Web for NixOS ( http://nixos.org/ , a Linux distribution

I believe using GCCARGS to pass include directory locations via -I can't be
made to work without introducing symlinks or some such whenever the actual
header files mysql.h and libpq-fe.h are contained in directories not named
postgresql and mysql.
Thanks for the information. Indeed, for people using non-Debian-based
systems, I've often had to suggest adding symlinks among their include
directories. Like you predict, your particular patch does break things
for Debian. I'm not familiar with the autotools idioms appropriate for
addressing this issue, but I'd be happy to apply a patch along those
lines, if someone wants to come up with one.
