Dumb question but I got bit by it before. Is there a makefile.custom
nearby? When I was cleaning up the docbook tags I put one in and it
had a couple of directories that didn't exist on my machine. They
probably existed on Tom Lockhart's machine, tho. :) I never noticed
it till the next time I built PostgreSQL.
