contrib-global.mk and sql.in question - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

Hey,

Just wondering if the rule:

%.sql: %.sql.in
        sed 's,MODULE_PATHNAME,$$libdir/$*g' $< >$@

is supposed to produce files like this:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION pgxml_parse(text) RETURNS boolean
    AS '$libdir/pgxml_dom' LANGUAGE c STRICT;

I'm using:

GNU sed version 4.0.3.
GNU make 3.80
Mandrake Linux 9.1
PG 7.4Beta1


I find the following patch makes it work for me, but I'm not sure if this is a
bug, feature, or something else?
