Meh.  That seems like a hack left over from before we had src/common.

Having said that, src/interfaces/libpq/ does have some special
requirements, because it needs the code compiled with -fpic (on most
hardware), which means it can't just use the client-side libpgcommon.a
builds.  So maybe it's not worth improving this.

Well, it could link source files from there just as easily as from the
backend.  Not object files, though.
