Ah, here's the problem. Bruce means the contrib directory in the
source distribution, which is at the top level, right beside src
(were the core of postgresql lives). It's pgsql/contrib, if you
do a CVS checkout. I'm not sure where it ends up in various binary
packages. (/usr/lib/postgresql/contrib on my Debian Linux install,
for example, has parts of it,m but not the whole thing)
