I'm always doing VPATH builds, but I believe there's still an
outstanding question on this from Peter about if we need to add entries
to .gitignore for, eg, sql/file_fdw.sql if these directories don't exist
because otherwise those would show up to someone doing a git status and
to Robert's point- if we need those anyway, it's probably better to have
them be in those directories rather than up a level and referring to
directories that don't exist in the tree.

Having the extra directories already exist doesn't seem like a bad thing
to me anyway.  If they are causing confusion or something then perhaps a
README could be added to let people know why they exist.

I'm going to mark this back to 'waiting on author' in case there's
something material that I've missed which you can clarify.  I had
started this review thinking to help move it along but after re-reading
the thread and thinking about it for a bit, I came around to the other
side and therefore think it should probably be rejected.  We certainly
appreciate the effort, of course.

        Thanks!
