I tried the attached patch, and while libpq.so now builds successfully,
it causes anything that tries to link to libpq fail like
gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Werror=vla -Wendif-labels
-Wmissing-format-attribute-Wimplicit-fallthrough=3 -Wcast-function-type -Wformat-security -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv
-fexcess-precision=standard-Wno-format-truncation -Wno-stringop-truncation -g -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage

/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: bad value

make[3]: *** [Makefile:43: initdb] Error 1
so this doesn't look too promising.
