Someone ran into this again yesterday with Solaris x86. The unix
socket problem is probably the same for both architectures, so why
not change pg_regress.sh to include *solaris* as part of the same
case statement that excludes QNX and BeOS for unix sockets? It is
safe to say that Solaris does have this problem.
The postmaster startup test could say something a bit more useful
this way too, as a standard "make check" does not report which type
of sockets are being used (but it does when --temp-install="").
Some folks may want that to be recorded in the output consistently.
A very small patch to do both of those things is attached.
