That looks right.

I see
prefix := /usr/local/pgsql
exec_prefix := ${prefix}
bindir := ${exec_prefix}/bin
sbindir := ${exec_prefix}/sbin
in the default configuration, so we need to keep the first two at least. We
don't need to expose them through pgxs, though.

pgxs only needs to expose the currently exposed variables plus sysconfdir, as
previously discussed. Unless someone can make a case that they need to
access the other directories.
