Rather than trying to compile it yourself, why don't you just install
the postgresql-contrib RPM that goes with the postgresql version you're
using?

That's not going to work --- they expect to be in a configured source
tree.

[ thinks... ]  Actually, it looks like this would work in 8.1:
    make USE_PGXS=1 all install
but I still wonder why you'd want to compile from source when you're
using an RPM distribution.
