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

Bruce, others, could this comparision be made case-insensitive at least, so that it at least finds "PostgreSQL" and does not append postgresql in that case?

That would be the least invasive fix for the Windows case, I guess, where the default installation directory contains "PostgreSQL".
