Yes. someone told me that he had the same problem due to 'cpp' missing
in path.
I have found 'cpp' , put it into the path, re-make all the compilation
and everything is ok now.

But "configure" (that is executing Gen_fmgrtab.sh) didn't detect that
cpp wasn't found.
I presume that "configure" must check if 'cpp' is available and report
the error.
In my case, he didn't report any error !!!
