As I understand os.h should be in postgres include directory and it's
just symlink on proper include file for your os from directory "port"
For example on debian linux it must be in /usr/include/postgresql
directory and it's symlink on .././port/linux.h. But when I made
posgresql-dev debian package from sources I got an error "os.h: now such
file ..." Therefore I've created package without this file and then
after installation I've copied file src/include/port/linux.h from
postgresql sources into /usr/include/postgresql/os.h.
So if the file os.h is absent in postgresql include directory on your
system take proper include file from src/include/port from postgresql
sources and copy it as os.h
