Re: pgsql: Generate syscache info from catalog files

Per guaibasaurus[1], this commit broke "make dist":

...
rm -rf tmp_install/ portlock/
rm -f config.cache config.log config.status GNUmakefile
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/pgsql/buildfarm/buildroot/HEAD/pgsql.build/postgresql-17devel'
/bin/tar chf postgresql-17devel.tar postgresql-17devel
/bin/tar: postgresql-17devel/src/include/catalog/syscache_ids.h: File removed before we read it
/bin/tar: postgresql-17devel/src/include/catalog/syscache_info.h: File removed before we read it
make: *** [GNUmakefile:94: postgresql-17devel.tar] Error 1
make: *** Deleting file 'postgresql-17devel.tar'

I'm not sure why --- the makefile changes treat these new files
exactly like other generated files. It doesn't repro here,
either, which is odd. It looks like a timing problem, but how
could there be one?
