I am thinking they could untar into a directory under pgsgl/ or have a way to point to a 'configure'-run source tree and pull values from there.
If you include pg_config.h, or use Makefile.global, you have almost everything you need to compile your own, including flags, configure checks, and the location of the installation directory.
How hard would it be to have the individual cvs projects such that they could be checked out all in one shot?
I'm thinking that if it was easy enough to maintain an up-to-date cvs copy for all the individual projects, then it would be easy to grep the entire mess when making backend changes. That way at least you could determine the extent of the impact when making backend changes. And since they are still individual projects, you don't need to get them all if you're not interested.
