Sorry, that conclusion was wrong. What happens is:
1. I change the prefix in Makefile.global to say,
C:/Progra~1/PostgreSQL/8.1-beta2 (this is the default for the installer).
2. I compile.
That triggers the append of 'postgresql' on all directories since my
install location *does not* contain the word 'postgres' nor 'pgsql'.

There's another issue with the Makefile.global.in that I feel should be
addressed here. The file contains a lot of entries like:
ifeq "$(findstring pgsql, $(pkgincludedir))" ""
ifeq "$(findstring postgres, $(pkgincludedir))" ""
override pkgincludedir := $(pkgincludedir)/postgresql
endif
endif
Guess what happens if the install-location in itself contains the string
postgres?
A more correct way of doing it is probably to check if the directory in
question *ends with* pgsql or postgres rather then if it contains it.
