Attached you'll find a (big) patch that fixes make dep and make
depend in all Makefiles where I found it to be appropriate.
It also removes the dependency in Makefile.global for NAMEDATALEN
and OIDNAMELEN by making backend/catalog/genbki.sh and bin/initdb/initdb.sh
a little smarter.
This no longer requires initdb.sh that is turned into initdb with
a sed script when installing Postgres, hence initdb.sh should be
renamed to initdb (after the patch has been applied :-) )
This patch is against the 6.3 sources, as it took a while to
complete.
Please review and apply,
Cheers,

does 2 things:
1) Make it hard to not notice the make failed. (As you recall, someone on
the mailing list had this problem. I've had it to some extent myself).
The 1.02 make files continue with the next subdirectory when a make
in a subdirectory fails. The patch makes the make stop in the
conventional way when a submake fails. It also adds a reassuring message
when the make succeeds and adds a note to the INSTALL file to expect it.
2) Include loader flags on all invocations of the linker.
The 1.02 make files omit the $(LDFLAGS) on some of the linker invocations.
On my system, I need one of those flags just to make it invoke the proper
version of the compiler/linker, so LDFLAGS has to be everywhere.
