this directory is the PG_VERSION file interface, which must be used by the
backend and also the pg_version program (which is used by initdb).

causes it to issue the message "postgres has been built" at the wrong

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.
