I've tested pgxs with PL/R and it allows me to build successfully
without using a Postgres source tree. Many thanks to both Fabien and
Peter for this!

One question did arise, however. In order to use pgxs I needed to do:
make install-all-headers
instead of:
make install

I seem to recall some discussion about this, but at the time didn't
realize the impact. IMHO pgxs support (including all needed headers)
should be installed by default, else we won't be able to count on it
being there when needed. Any chance we can revisit this?

Thanks,

Joe
