   On 4.4.1 i also have one problem (see attached configure.in.rej):

patching file configure.in
Hunk #1 succeeded at 2071 (offset -42 lines).
Hunk #2 succeeded at 2584 with fuzz 1 (offset -47 lines).
Hunk #3 FAILED at 2696.
Hunk #4 FAILED at 2751.
2 out of 4 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file configure.in.rej

   i added next lines by hands:

      libpq . . . . . . . . $with_libpq

      postgresql  . . . . . $enable_postgresql

    Yes, with --disable-libstatgrab i compile 4.4.1 successfully but i don't
sure that libstatgrab not need for me.
    But in result (after configure) i don't see any info about libpq or  
postgresql
in result Libraries and Modules lists (and in 'configure --help' also).
    It's strange.

    I take last snapshot from your link below and with it i see all  
configuration
info about postgresql BUT have compilation error with mysql plugin (see  
attached make.log).

    Of course, no problem.
