Ah, I found what the actual problem is: we have sprinkled a few
dependencies on "...-recurse" throught the tree, but the patch I posted
yesterday changes the manufactured target as "-recursive", as it was
prior to 1bd201214965; so essentially these manually added dependencies
all became silent no-ops.

With this version I keep the target name as -recurse, and at least the
ecpg<->libpq problem is no more AFAICT.
