If you ask where they are maintained, the answer is here:

the other major versions have their own branch.
Luckily these are all quite small, leaving little space to hide stuff. I'd
still like to get rid of at least some of them.
I've previously proposed a patch to make pkglibdir configurable, I think we
should just go for that.
For the various defines, ISTM we should just make them #ifndef guarded, then
they could be overridden by defining them at configure time. Some of them,
like DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR seem to be overridden by just about every
distro. And others would be nice to easily override anyway, I e.g. dislike the
default DEFAULT_PAGER value.
+1 to this proposal.
cheers
