Ah, this came in after I sent my other mail, with this foot-note:

 > Currently, the two build systems don't handle the "please build only 
libpq" scenario well. If that was supported better, building a second 
package with oauth support could be much easier.

I think we should rather improve the build systems to handle this case, 
to give packagers more flexibility.

Best,
