1. Fix makefiles so that contrib modules such as pgcrypto are not pg_crypto

That will lose the CVS history of the modules, which is not worth the
small benefit gained from more consistent-looking names.  Renaming
existing shared libraries is also a very bad idea, because it will
break existing dump scripts.

I don't know when that TODO item got put in, but it's a stupid idea.

O.k. just trying to help :)
