Well, then it should be fixed to take relocated installations into 
account.

Relocatable installations are by nature a pretty broken feature.  When 
you use pg_config to locate, say, libpq, then compile your third-party 
package, and then move libpq somewhere else, nothing can save you 
(except moving libpq back).  At least on Unix, relocatable 
installations are a walking cane when you need parallel installations 
for upgrades, but they'll never work reliably in general.
