OK, I can see the tradeoff.    Hmmm ... this means that we need something in 
the Release Notes, I would think:

-- Symlinking the PostgreSQL binaries may cause problems with PostgreSQL 
locating libraries and files, due to changes to make moving Postgres 
directories easier.   It is recommended that you use --exec-prefix when 
compiling if you think you will need symlinks.
