I'll admit that I had thought that moving contrib modules over to a modules dir as they were, uh, modularized would be the way forward. Anything that doesn't fit the database-owner-installable pattern (pgbench? start-scripts? others?) could end up in a utils dir, and anything left in contrib shows us what's left to do before e.g. 8.4. The end goal would be no more contrib dir by the next major release. As a side note, how were you intending to rename contrib? Directory shenanigans in CVS are horrible, particularly if you want all your old branches to still work.
