I don't believe we either try to create that directory or try to put
anything in it during "make install". Anything you might want to put
there would need to be hand-created anyway. (Note that the only thing
that goes there is system-wide client configuration files, which few
installations need. Server configuration files live in the cluster data
directory by default.)
