Ugh? Are you saying there is something wrong in our *official* documentation?
It is just a normal compilation command; if you're a C programmer you'll have
no problem.

Again, PGXS was developed to make packagers' life easier. Why on earth I want
to install my library in a path different from $libdir? Packagers don't.
Besides, PGXS won't work on Windows unless you're using a installation built
using MinGW.

What the problem with that? If it set up the right name in sql file that's OK.
IMHO, you're trying to complicate a simple process. If you messed up your
installation you can always do:
$ cd mymodule
$ USE_PGXS=1 make uninstall
