 This is an error that has been reported from several sources. It is 
 *very* odd, though. Here's what's failing:
 
 gmake[4]: Entering directory 
 `/usr/ports/databases/postgresql7/work/postgresql-7.2.3/src/backend/utils'
   CPP='cc -E' AWK='nawk' /bin/sh Gen_fmgrtab.sh 
 ../../../src/include/catalog/pg_proc.h
   cc -E: not found
 
 
 Somehow, /bin/sh is failing, and tries to run a program called "cc -E" 
 instead of running the program "cc" with the argument "-E". I've never 
 really gotten a good answer as to why this can happen, but the most 
 knowledgeable guys blame /bin/sh. I'm inclined to agree.
 
 There is a new port just about to be comitted. Maybe it will work better?
 
 Either way, please set this PR to analyzed for now. I know about the 
 problem, I'm digging, but I cannot resolve it. I cannot even reproduce 
 it here. :(
