A nicer idea would be something like a utility could we ship that will
download, build and install module foo for you. Then we could publish many
many modules on pgfoundry, their authors could look after them, and
installing them would be trivial. pgxs should make such a thing a lot
simpler in many cases.

Of course, building it would be quite a bit of work :-)
