Surely it'd be better to put that into the $(libpq) macro instead.
I see that Makefile.global already has an AIX-specific hack to deal with
PTHREAD_LIBS that way, maybe we need to extend it?

Also, the list of potential library dependencies in libpq's own Makefile
is quite a bit longer than this list ... perhaps ecpg's list is too
short?
