So, my co-workers chided me mercilessly to get the -contrib RPM working
as well; so the full patch is now attached.

BTW, I did search the archive and this problem did not stick out; but it
could be my crummy reference skills. And, no, I didn't read all 3500
emails since the v8.0.3 release.

Also, there's some good chance that the binary RPMs on the
postgresql.org FTP site have the same flaw that I encountered as
described below.

Regards,
Mark
