Yah, I was just trying stuff.  As it turns out, PostgreSQL doesn't
recognize NetBSD as an ELF system unless it is a powerpc.  That's
probably correct as it is only -current that is ELF, not the release.
If it helps, here is the output of "file /netbsd" which tells you for
sure it is an ELF system.

/netbsd: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1, statically linked, not stripped

so;

if [ "`file /netbsd | cut -d' ' -f2`" = "ELF" ]
then elf=yes
fi

Under the netbsd secion of configure_in should do it.
