Re: pgxs: build infrastructure for extensions v4

Peter/Fabien,

Just to say thank you for all your hard work in getting pgxs working in
CVS. I've successfully managed to get a contrib module to build outside
of the source tree, which will help simplify a lot of things.

I have one question though: the comments in pgxs.mk suggested that I
needed to do the following to include the pgxs.mk:

# Use the following layout for your Makefile:
#
# [variable assignments, see below]
# [custom rules, rarely necessary]
#
# PGXS := $(shell pg_config --pgxs)
# include $(PGXS)

However, on my CVS version from about an hour ago, I needed to change
this to:

PGXS := $(shell pg_config --pgxs)/src/makefiles/pgxs.mk
include $(PGXS)

This is because I only get the pgxs directory returned by "pgconfig
--pgxs" as opposed to the path to the pgxs.mk file itself - is that the
correct thing to do (i.e. the comment is wrong?) or is "pgconfig --pgxs"
returning the wrong thing?

Kind regards,

Mark.
