you bet it should be. That's a bug I'll squash the sucker and get back
to you.

Could it be that iodbc.h is getting installed twice by two different
makefiles in the distribution?

On my platform, once you've installed something with read-only
permission (and note the "-m 444" above), the local version of the
install script will not overwrite that file.  So the second attempt
to install would fail, with exactly the above-displayed error.

Currently, I have to manually blow away /usr/local/pgsql/bin, .../lib,
and .../include before doing a fresh "make install".  (I've been
intending to submit some kind of improvement to fix that, but it hasn't
yet got to the top of the to-do queue.)
