Subject: pl-ruby detecting postgresql 7.4 under redhat

I hope discussion on pl-ruby is welcome in this list.

pl-ruby 0.3.8. RH7.3. postgresql 7.4.0 RPM from PGDG.

In this installation, pg_config.h is located under 
/usr/include/pgsql/server/, not /usr/include/pgsql/. Thus extconf.rb 
fails to detect the version automatically. I need to add 
--with-pgsql-version explicitly, otherwise it will assume version is 7.3 
and plruby will fail to build.

What about adding this in extconf.rb:

--- extconf.rb.orig     Fri Feb  6 14:22:00 2004
+++ extconf.rb  Fri Feb  6 14:28:38 2004
@@ -49,6 +49,7 @@
     for version_in in [
          "#{include_dir}/config.h",
          "#{include_dir}/pg_config.h",
+        "#{include_dir}/server/pg_config.h",
          "#{srcdir}/version.h.in",
          "#{srcdir}/pg_config.h"
        ]

or perhaps adding "/usr/include/pgsql" as one of the default include_dir 
to search?
