Simple one, attached.
I didn't document USE_VPATH, not sure how to explain that clearly.
Just a remember that the doc is written and is waiting to be commited.
There is also an issue spoted by Christoph with the installdirs prerequisite,
the attached patch fix that.
I applied this one line version of the patch, which seemed more elegant
than the later one supplied.
I backpatched that and the rest of the VPATH changes for extensiuons to
9.1 where we first provided for extensions, so people can have a
reasonably uniform build system for their extensions.
I suspect this line
submake-libpq: $(libdir)/libpq.so ;
will cause problems on platforms with a different extension (e.g. OS X).
Given that this supposedly small and noninvasive set of changes has
caused a number of problems already, I suggest we revert this entire
thing until we have had time to actually test it somewhere other than in
the the stable branches. As it stands, it is a new feature being
developed in the stable branches, which is clearly not acceptable.
If you want to revert it then go ahead, but the last statement is simply
incorrect. The code has been sitting in HEAD for several months, and I
committed on the back branches because it was wanted.
