I understood "make check" should be able to be run before an install.

Turning off rpath in src/Makefile.global did the trick. I'm amazed this 
hasn't caught me before - maybe libpq has just been so stable it hasn't 
made a difference ... Should the version number be bumped? or is this 
just a developer gotcha?
