... and the build logs don't show any particular reason for it.
What is wrong, and why isn't the buildfarm script capturing a
useful error message?

It's the format change in the makefile for foreign stuff. The line:

Could not match in foreign makefile

I don't know why it ends up where it does - when I run the build in my
VM, it ends up as the last line which makes it stand out properly.

I'll take a look at fixing the actual issue.

Looks like this:
http://anoncvs.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql/src/backend/foreign/Makefile?rev=1.2
broke Mkvcbuild.pm. The attached patch just comments out the offending
code in Mkvcbuild.pm - I assume Peter will be putting the FDW stuff
back in 8.5.

Since we removed it from the general Makefiles, I suggest we actually
remove it from the Mkvcbuild.pm file as well. it's still there in the
history - just like the general Makefiles.

Thoughts?

+1. Comments are not a substitute for having CVS history ...

I've applied a version that does this. Hopefully that'll bring the
buildfarm back into green.
