FWIW, I did move pg_config from -devel to the "main" (really client)

We should make sure that the PGDG packages adopt that for 9.1 then, so
it starts catching on more. Unless Devrim changed to catch up since I
last installed an RPM set, in that 9.0 it's still in the same place:
$ rpm -qf /usr/pgsql-9.0/bin/pg_config
postgresql90-devel-9.0.2-2PGDG.rhel5
While Peter's question about whether it's really all that useful is
reasonable, I'd at least like to get a better error message when you
don't have everything needed to compile extensions. I think the
shortest path to that is making pg_config more likely to be installed,
then to check whether the file "pg_config --pgxs" references exists.
I'll see if I can turn that idea into an actual change to propose.
