I think what he means is that when pg_bsd_indent absorbs the CFLAGS
settings that PG uses (because it uses the pgxs build infrastructure),
it ends up also building .bc files.
I wouldn't care about this particularly for pg_bsd_indent itself,
but it suggests that we're probably building .bc files for client-side
files, which seems like a substantial waste of time. Maybe we need
different CFLAGS for client and server?
