did this recently go away?

recently i decided to upgrade some stuff from pgsql 6.x to 7.1.2 and
am trying to build php.

it does not appear that there is a /usr/local/pgsql/include/postgres.h
any more.

according to the ChangeLogs:

"there are now
separate files "postgres.h" and "postgres_fe.h", which are meant to
be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c
files respectively. By default, only include files meant for
frontend use are installed into the installation include directory."

is it my understanding that postgres.h is only supposed to be used by
server/backend code?

if so, this decision could cause a good chunk of existing code to break.
