+1. I have just looked at the patch, and my take is that listing all
the ways to build Postgres directly in the README is just a
duplication of what we already have in the documentation. So I would
just rip out all that and keep a simple link to the documentation.

Yep.
For now I have moved the patch to next CF, waiting on author.
