I found CVS HEAD is broken and the following error is reported.
My environment is RHEL4 Update 2 x86_64 with gcc 3.4.4 and flex 2.5.33.
In file included from ../../../src/include/port.h:17, from ../../../src/include/c.h:841,
from../../../src/include/postgres_fe.h:21, from psqlscan.l:40:
/usr/include/netdb.h:560: error: syntax error before '[' token

make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
The suspect is flex (or yy template file). It defines "__unused" to
be empty, but netdb.h uses "__unused" as a variable.
I found a similar case from google.

-> 560 int __unused[5]; 561 };
Here is a brute fix for the problem, but it is probably improper.
What is better way to fix?
