This looks pretty bogus.  The code in around line 2681 is
   ArchiveEntry(fout, oid, target, namespace, owner,                "COMMENT", deps,                query->data, "",
NULL,NULL, NULL);
 

deps is declared in the signature of the surrounding function:

static void
dumpComment(Archive *fout, const char *target,           const char *namespace, const char *owner,           const char
*oid,const char *classname, int subid,           const char *((*deps)[]))
 

The declaration of ArchiveEntry() is:

extern void ArchiveEntry(Archive *AHX, const char *oid, const char *tag,            const char *namespace, const char
*owner,           const char *desc, const char *((*deps)[]),            const char *defn, const char *dropStmt,
  const char *copyStmt,            DataDumperPtr dumpFn, void *dumpArg);
 

deps has exactly the same type in both.

I wonder whether the const gets lost somewhere, perhaps due to something
that configure does.
