Yes, contrib is pretty messy. It'd be great to clean it up to have
uniform build/install conventions.
Another thing wrong with contrib is that there are a couple of
directories that are obsolete because the features got installed
in the main build (int8 for example). But they were never cleaned
out of contrib. There isn't anyone really maintaining contrib...
