L.S.

Just like v15rc1, the second rc fails to compile when using the source from a 
symlink.

=> openSUSE Leap 15.4 (gcc v7.5.0 / make v4.2.1)
=> unpack source
=> create a symlink $PGSRCDIR to the source(-rc2) folder
=> create a build folder $PGDIR and from within that:

$PGSRCDIR/configure --prefix=$PGDIR/install --enable-thread-safety

make -j2 

=> fails on the following: 
(...)
configure: using compiler=gcc (SUSE Linux) 7.5.0
configure: using CFLAGS=-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -
Wdeclaration-after-statement -Werror=vla -Wendif-labels -Wmissing-format-
attribute -Wimplicit-fallthrough=3 -Wformat-security -fno-strict-aliasing -
fwrapv -fexcess-precision=standard -Wno-format-truncation -O2
configure: using CPPFLAGS= -D_GNU_SOURCE -I/usr/include/libxml2 
configure: using LDFLAGS= -Wl,--as-needed
preparing build tree... done

+ make -j2
make -C ./src/backend generated-headers
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/development/4suse15.4-x86_64/
postgresql-15.0/src/backend'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'generated-headers'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/development/4suse15.4-x86_64/
postgresql-15.0/src/backend'
make: *** [src/Makefile.global:390: submake-generated-headers] Error 2 


=> when using the real source folder instead of the symlink, the same compile/
script finishes fine

Best,
