Hi,
thanks for the response.
In the next days after my post I've examined configure.log and I 
discovered that the problem wasn't libpq but another library.
I've than fixed it.

So, it was an error message no so precise. The library missing was 
required by libpq, but libpq wasn't the problem.
I've spent very much time searching Internet for a solution, but the 
solution was so simple: CHECK CONFIGURE.LOG !! :)

Bye bye

Ludovico
