Re: undefined reference to `PQprepare' with postgresql-dev 7.4.7-6sarge2

I've also checked
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/interactive/libpq-exec.html
and PQprepare() isn't mentioned there at all.
Wasn't it provided in PostgreSQL version 7?

Is there a way to workaround it?
Maybe by using pqPrepareAsyncResult()?

And how could I #ifdef in my libpq-program, to
detect an older PostgreSQL version? The headers

  /usr/include/postgresql/libpq-fe.h and
  /usr/include/postgresql/postgres_ext.h

don't have any PG_VERSION or similar define...

There are very few hits for the "undefined reference PQprepare"
on Google (which I take a good sign :-)

Does anybody have an idea please, what could I be doing wrong?

Why doesn't objdump find PQprepare, but finds PQconnectdb?

$ objdump -x /usr/lib/libpq.a | grep -i PQconnectdb
00000000 g     F .text  00000042 PQconnectdb

Thank you
Alex

PS: And here is the code failing to link (my server/pgsql.c)
      probably nothing special:

#define DB_CONN_STR             "host=/tmp user=XXX dbname=XXX"
#define SQL_FETCH_USER          \
    "select username, user_avatar from phpbb_users where user_active = 1 " \
    "and user_id = $1 and user_password = $2 and user_id not in " \
    "(select ban_userid from phpbb_banlist where ban_userid is not null)"
......
static void
db_reconnect()
{
        PQreset(conn);

        if (PQstatus(conn) != CONNECTION_OK) {
                warn("Connection to db '%s' failed: %s",
                    DB_CONN_STR, PQerrorMessage(conn));
                sleep(RETRY_INTERVAL);
                return;
        }

        db_prepare("sql_fetch_user", SQL_FETCH_USER, 2);
}
