Hi Sachin,

No, it's a bug :(  The PGXSOVERRIDE code to support versioned directory 
installation under older versions of PostgreSQL had not been updated to 
check for version 9.0 rather than 8.5. I've fixed this in SVN for both 
1.5 branch and trunk, but you should be able to apply the attached patch 
and then re-run "autoconf" to generate a new configure file that should 
work correctly.


HTH,

Mark.
