Thanks Andrew. The build's still running but the CPPFLAGS hint does seem to have helped (see below).
Unless advised otherwise, I intend to let that option be, so as to get bichir back online. If a future commit 'fixes' things, I could rollback this flag to test things out (or try out other options if required).

This did help in getting past the previous hurdle. postgres@WSLv1:/opt/postgres/bf/v11/buildroot/HEAD/bichir.lastrun-logs$ grep CPPFLAGS configure.log| grep using configure: using CPPFLAGS=-DWAIT_USE_POLL -D_GNU_SOURCE -I/usr/include/libxml2 configure:19511: using CPPFLAGS=-DWAIT_USE_POLL -D_GNU_SOURCE -I/usr/include/libxml2 postgres@WSLv1:/opt/postgres/bf/v11/buildroot/HEAD/bichir.lastrun-logs$ grep -A2 "creating database" lastcommand.log ============== creating database "regression" ============== CREATE DATABASE ALTER DATABASE - thanks robins
