I'm having a feeling that this will not work too well with parallel
make. Every directory needs to know how to make all the files that it
needs. For the case of parse.h it would not be too difficult to teach the
few places that need it:
src/backend$ find -name '*.c' | xargs fgrep 'parse.h' | fgrep -v './parser/'
./commands/command.c:#include "parser/parse.h"
./commands/comment.c:#include "parser/parse.h"
./nodes/outfuncs.c:#include "parser/parse.h"
./tcop/utility.c:#include "parser/parse.h"
fmgroids.h on the other hand would be trickier. We might need a
backend/Makefile.inc (perhaps as a wrapper around Makefile.global) to do
it right. But I haven't gotten to the backend tree at all yet.
