The build system is ignoring your --with-postgres-libs= setting in
this instance (no -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib switch).

I'm not particularly familiar with the 5.7 build system, but
lib/vector/Vlib/Makefile should probably have:

	EXTRA_LIBDIRS = $(PQLIBPATH)

Either that, or EXTRA_LIBS should have:

	EXTRA_LIBS = ... $(PQLIBPATH) $(PQLIB)

rather than just $(PQLIB).
