This patch:

...did not tidy up after itself as well as it might have. In
particular, it left the prototype for copydir() in src/include/port.h,
while moving the source file from src/port/copydir.c to
src/backend/storage/file/copydir.c. I think this should probably be
cleaned up, but I'm a little uncertain where the best place to put
that prototype is. I am tempted to just put this in a new header file
named according to our usual conventions, namely
src/include/storage/copydir.c, but since there's only one public
function at present perhaps someone would like to argue for including
it in some other, already-exstant header.
A patch I'm working on needs to expose the copy_file() function, which
is currently static to copydir.c, so maybe it would be preferable to
rename copydir.c to copy.c and add the header as
src/include/storage/copy.h.
Thoughts?
