Comment (by mcayland):

 Okay folks. Tom committed a revised version of my patch here:

 http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2010-01/msg00025.php

 And so please find attached the relevant hackery for PostgreSQL < 8.5 as
 postgis-contrib-directory.patch. So it's a particularly ugly hack, but by
 basing it upon the 8.5 patch and putting all the horrible nastiness in a
 separate file, it's fairly easy to switch the logic based upon the
 PostgreSQL version and remove it as soon as PostgreSQL 8.5 becomes our
 minimum supported version.

 The only slightly annoying part is that because we are overriding 3 of the
 PGXS targets then we get the following warnings when compiling on
 PostgreSQL < 8.5:

 Makefile.pgxs:17: warning: overriding commands for target `install'
 /home/pg83/rel-8.3.7/lib/postgresql/pgxs/src/makefiles/pgxs.mk:96:
 warning: ignoring old commands for target `install'
 Makefile.pgxs:60: warning: overriding commands for target `installdirs'
 /home/pg83/rel-8.3.7/lib/postgresql/pgxs/src/makefiles/pgxs.mk:143:
 warning: ignoring old commands for target `installdirs'
 Makefile.pgxs:79: warning: overriding commands for target `uninstall'

 These are, fortunately, harmless but I couldn't find a way of suppressing
 them. I've tested this on PostgreSQL 8.3 and 8.5 and it works as expected
 for me, so I'm putting it out here for the others to test.
