The PGXS build system allows for the definition of an OBJS variable, which 
works fine with almost every other make target.

Maybe we need to take a step back, and think about what kind of extension 
layouts we want to support ?

At the time of this writing, the HOW TO on http://manager.pgxn.org/howto 
"strongly encourage" to put all C-files in an src directory.

As a result, many extensions on pgxn use this layout. It would be great not to 
have to change them to measure code coverage.
