The evil part of the problem is that you'd need to fix it all the way
back to 8.4 (or 9.0 once 8.4 is EOL) if we want it to build extensions
on apt.pg.org. (Or find a way that is compatible with as many majors
as possible.)

Debian builds don't have root access, so "make installcheck" would
need to install into a temp dir (probably DESTDIR). Currently this
fails because the server will still insist on reading the extension
control files from PGSHAREDIR. (See the thread starting at
http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20120221101903.GA15647@gnash for
details.)

Otherwise than that, and my pending "pg_regress --host /tmp" patch,
things should probably ok for buildds.
