Looks like my installation is confused.  It's installing to
/usr/local/pgsql/, but pg_config is pointing to /usr/lib/postgresql/.

I think what happened is that I installed postgres using apt-get, but
since I needed the source to install postgis, I installed the source,
but configured it incorrectly.

Do I need to start over?
