Yep, PG 7.4.1 installs fine on a native IA64 box, but not when cross
compiling on a IA32 box for IA64. Regardless of what I do, PG always seem to
want to link libpthread from /lib (which is the IA32 version) and ignores
the LDFLAGS directive pointing it at /usr/local/ia64-linux/lib. I'm
suspecting this is hardcoded somewhere in the GCC environment because even
when I explicitly tell it to link to the IA64 lib, it completely ignores it.
