Nice!

Since the Java files are platform independent, the GNU file system
standard would prefer Java files to be installed under $(prefix)/share/.
If we stick with lib/, we should probably be creating a lib/postgresql
subdirectory, like we do in the other subtrees.
Some other thoughts:
Shouldn't the interfaces/jdbc/Makfile be using interfaces/jdbc/build.xml
rather than the one on top? Is the one on top still needed?
In PGAC_PROG_ANT, it might be worth running the found program to see if it
actually works. (On a vanilla Linux installation with Kaffe it probably
won't unless the user manually configured the class path.)
If I find some time I'm going to look if I can implement uninstall and
building outside the source tree for the jdbc subtree.
