I was just rebasing meson ontop of this and was wondering whether the input
filenames were in a particular order:

First, things used by later files need to be found in earlier files. So that constrains the order a bit.

Second, the order of the files determines the ordering of the output. The current order of the files reflects approximately the order how the manual code was arranged. That could be changed. We could also just sort the node types in the script and dump out everything alphabetically.

That annoyed me too.  I think it's sensible to list the "main" input
files first, but I'd put them in our traditional pipeline order:

        nodes/nodes.h \
        nodes/primnodes.h \
        nodes/parsenodes.h \
        nodes/pathnodes.h \
        nodes/plannodes.h \
        nodes/execnodes.h \

The seems worth trying out.

The rest could probably be alphabetical.  I was also wondering if
all of them really need to be read at all --- I'm unclear on what
access/sdir.h is contributing, for example.

could not handle type "ScanDirection" in struct "IndexScan" field "indexorderdir"
