Agreed for smgr.h. Will push when I'm back at a real computer soon,
or +1 from me if someone else wants to. It must have been left over
from an earlier version that had a different arrangement with multiple
GUCs in different places and might have needed GUC-related types to
declare the check functions or something like that; sorry. As for
fd.h, the reason it now includes <fcntl.h> is that fd.h tests whether
O_DIRECT is defined, so in fact that was an omission from 2dbe8905
which moved the #if defined(O_DIRECT) stuff from xlogdefs.h to fd.h
but failed to move the #include with it; I will check if something
needs to be back-patched there.
