But what about things like pg_config --bindir, pg_config --version,
pg_config --sharedir etc - they are definitly usable even if you're not
developing C language server extensions, aren't they?

That I can agree with :-) I beleive they were originally split so you
could change the directory used for each part. But I don't think we
allow that anymore.

What would ppl suggest? Put it all together as one feature? Or keep
grouping in part?
