Ok. I trust you on that;-)

Thus the only performance improvement I can see is to change the "install"
script, for instance by considering the multi-argument apache version as a
candidate replacement.

This might require also to fix makefiles install target to take advantage
of the fact.

Also, it might require to deal with "extensions" of the postgres script
somehow, if it has any such things.

I might look into it as I'm somehow responsible for the
"install-all-headers" new default, but I don't have much time
right now.

Have a nice day,
