Well the rpm did have the header files after all.  Couldn't find them with
locate because the db hadn't updated yet.  I used the package manager to
list the files and found from it where they were.  Not in the place I
expected which was /usr/local/include/pgsql.  Instead it put them here
/usr/include/pgsql.  Any way I've got everything installed now.  Now for the
real test.  Can I do something with it?
