I think we fixed this by use of $(echo $(${PG_CONFIG} --libdir)/libpq.dll)
but the construct was not acceped by Solaris shell.. What about trying
again to fix this in the configure.in script ? It would be nice...

Maybe we should strip the "bad character" using sed or maybe using
an incremental approach like:
	LDFLAGS=`pg_config --libdir`
	LDFLAGS=${LDFLAGS}/libpq.dll
Can you find by use of the shell a viable solution for the problem ?

TIA
