Problems with installing with perl interface

I am trying to install PostgreSQL, version 6.5.3, on a new machine by following
the instructions inchapter 4 of the "PostgreSQL Administrator's Guide." I've
already installed Perl 5.6.1 but when I get to paragraph 17 to add the perl
interface, I get the following message:
----
cc -c -I/usr/local/pgsql/include -fno-strict-aliasing -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2   -DVERSION
=\"1.8.0\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.8.0\" -fpic

I've defined POSTGRES_HOME=/usr/local/pgsql as suggested by the README in that
directory.

I'm trying to keep the installation as plain vanilla as I can, but obviously
there's something missing. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Dave
