AFAICS the packagers (RPM etc) will continue to think that these files
belong in a postgresql-devel RPM, and will not include them in a base
package.  I'm not sure of the point of trying to force installation in
a build from source given that much of the world isn't going to be using
a source package anyway.

However, we could certainly talk about altering the default behavior
(eg, install becomes install-no-headers and install-all-headers becomes
part of the default install target).
