Sorry for following up to myself once more...

after finding and reading the thread on HACKERS about com_err.h from
last December, I think either should configure check if including
krb5.h is sufficient for getting the prototype of error_message(), or
a conditional include for krb5.h should be added to
src/interfaces/libpq/fe-auth.c.

A proposed patch to achieve the latter is attached to this mail.

Either way will lead to a build time error when error_message() isn't
declared or com_err.h can't be found, which is better than the current
situation where only a warning about a missing prototype is issued,
but compilation continues resulting in a broken libpq.

That looks like a reasonable fix, but isn't it needed in
backend/libpq/auth.c as well?

Yes, indeed:

auth.c: In function `pg_krb5_init':
auth.c:202: warning: implicit declaration of function `com_err'

OK, patch applied in both files.
