Hmm, the other option is to ignore USE_PGXS completely and build
assuming the source tree is always present.  That way, if you build the
whole contrib subdir with USE_PGXS=1, you will end up with all modules
being built, not stop in the middle with an error.  This seems more
useful to me.  We could just add a comment that USE_PGXS is ignored.
