Daniel Gustafsson e9bc0441f1 Provide error hint on exit() check when building libpq
Commit dc227eb82 introduced a restriction on libpq that no functions which
invoke exit() are allowed to be called. This was further refined and fixed
in e45b0dfa1f and 2f7bae2f92 and 792259591. While this is well documented
in the Makefile, the error message emitted when the check failed was terse,
without hints for new developers without prior context. This adds an error
hint to assist new developers onboarding to postgres.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
