It appears that on Ubuntu, libbsd defines those symbols, which confuses

The question is what's pulling in libbsd though. In the previous report
it came via libedit, which you're not using. I'd try looking in the
config.log file to see what it was linking in the test that decided
setproctitle was available, and then using ldd on each of those
libraries to see which one(s) require libbsd.
Will do. Then there's always trying Ubuntu-11?
Couldn't say. But re-reading this, I wonder if maybe you *are* using
libedit. Have you got readline installed? If not, configure will try
libedit as second choice ... so maybe the best fix is to install
readline (and don't forget readline-devel or local equivalent).

I built readline-6.2 from source and got passed linking 'postgres'
executable. Progress! now chasing down libperl

I had to make a simlink 'ln -s /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.10
/usr/lib/libperl.so' which I thought was supposed to happen automagically...
BUT
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rob/tools/postgresql-9.1.1/config'
All of PostgreSQL successfully made. Ready to install.
PostgreSQL installation complete.
Thank you Tom for the readline tip. Sort of thing that would take me
forever to track down.
