What is "unpacked"? And why does the docs Makefile want it??

Changes for DESTDIR/linux that Bruce committed, but what I had before that
would have broken on your machine also, I fear :)

Oops, I installed that patch.  Someone supplied a patch to put it in a
subdirectory called 'unpacked' rather than a hard-coded patch.  I think
it was the Linux Redhat guy.  Guess he forgot to create the directory.

Well, /usr/local/cdrom/docs doesn't quite work either :)

Will revert to the original stuff unless there is a "grand scheme" for
this. We're now using POSTGRESDIR for the DESTDIR function?

	Nope, that was just me working on the cd's :)  I must have done a
commit without realizing the change...

	No, I believe we got rid of the DESTDIR functionality altogether
as it was unrequired...
