make dist does not work in VPATH - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

Hi,

It seems we're neglecting to copy GNUmakefile into the temporary
distdir:

$ pwd
/pgsql/build/83_rel
$ make dist
rm -rf postgresql-8.3.3* =install=
for x in `cd /pgsql/source/83_rel && find . -name CVS -prune -o -print`; do \         file=`expr X$x : 'X\./\(.*\)'`; \
       if test -d "/pgsql/source/83_rel/$file" ; then \           mkdir "postgresql-8.3.3/$file" && chmod 777
"postgresql-8.3.3/$file";      \         else \           ln "/pgsql/source/83_rel/$file" "postgresql-8.3.3/$file"
>/dev/null2>&1 \             || cp "/pgsql/source/83_rel/$file" "postgresql-8.3.3/$file"; \         fi || exit; \
done
make -C postgresql-8.3.3 distprep
