Look in there if you want to see what it is. They have README files. The reason nobody can help you here is because not a lot of people here know anything about rpms at all and thus don't know how to answer your question. If you compile the stuff in contrib and include it in your main package, fine. It's just seperated out because not everybody needs it. It's not part of the core postgresql.
