Also, increase compiled-in recursion depth limit from 10 to 100 rewrite

exist for the same query. There was a complaint about this recently,
so I'm going to bump it up. (Perhaps we should make the limit a GUC
parameter, but that's too close to being a new feature to do in beta.)

Attached is a patch to fix the mb linking problems on AIX. As a nice side effect
it reduces the duplicate symbol warnings to linking libpq.so and libecpg.so
(all shlibs that are not postmaster loadable modules).
Please apply to current (only affects AIX).
The _LARGE_FILES problem is unfortunately still open, unless Peter
has fixed it per his recent idea.
