That's correct. Ecpg is bundled with PostgreSQL since 6.3.

Which version of ecpg? You should be able to compile ecpg standalon without
much of a problem. Just make sure all programs you develop are linked with
-lecpg -lpq. Of course both libraries must be accessible. Also ecpg come
with some additional include files that have to be installed in a place
where cpp finds them.
