Summary: Please use pg_config to find include dirs in setup.py

Initial Comment:
Hi again,  

Debian has recently moved its postgresql  
include directories around (to allow for  
side-by-side installations of postgresql 7.4 and  
8.0).  As a result, pypgsql no longer builds out of  
the box.  

A failsafe method of fixing problems like this is  
to use "pg_config --includedir" in setup.py for 
deciding on the C include directories, instead of 
using the current hard-coded list 
of /usr/include, /usr/include/postgresql 
and /usr/include/pgsql .  

The patch is fairly simple; I've included it as an  
attachment to this bug report.  

Thanks - Ben.
