So in debian (or at least with Wheezy) where the original bug 315 was 
reported


libpq-dev puts port.h in /usr/include/postgresql/port.h so it gets 
picked up by the client include paths.  I am able to do a build with 
--with-pgport

This isn't actually a problem on debian, is the problem on OSX that 
port.h isn't being put in the libpq header directories?  Should it? 
Where do other platforms/distributions put port.h ?
