I got it to build fairly easily, but the ecpg regression tests are a mess.
After some fooling around, I'm down to diffs like these in the
preprocessor output files:

116c116
< #line 36 "show.pgc"
---
> #line 36 "/home/tgl/pgsql/src/interfaces/ecpg/test/sql/show.pgc"
119c119
< #line 36 "show.pgc"
---
> #line 36 "/home/tgl/pgsql/src/interfaces/ecpg/test/sql/show.pgc"
122c122
< #line 36 "show.pgc"
---
> #line 36 "/home/tgl/pgsql/src/interfaces/ecpg/test/sql/show.pgc"

AFAICS there is no very good way to deal with this. I'd suggest
providing a way to suppress #line output from the ecpg preprocessor,
but perhaps there is another answer.
