Thanks for checking this.

hmm, I think that the top-level README file (and README data in help.c) is
not very suitable to put a description of an extension module, especially
such a temporary information. (I'm going to remove the file someday.)  And
this is for users looking for trace.c, when they find there is no trace.c
there, will they read the top-level README?  The extensions/trace.c.README
will be easier to notice.

Do you have any concerns about adding the file?

Thanks,
Kazu
