Um. Then we wouldn't support installs made any other way, so I think
not. Also, this directory is *per user*, not per machine.

But actually, looking at the files, only the history file is one that
would be created by a program - the rest are all supposed to be created
by the user to make a libpq program act in a special way? If I'm right
in that, I would suggest that *psql* creates the directory when it needs
to write the history file. But libpq should never need to, since it only
reads the files.
