Hmm, the need for that header file is a very recent addition. I'm not
very surprised to hear of portability issues around it. What you need
to look into is what's needed to compile this patch:
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=ba007262a7661234588b1ebe297e3a95924ba587
If you're using gcc it's quite possible you don't need the header file
at all --- try just diking it out. Please report back.
