Unfortunately no. The backslashes in the binary path need to be
escaped. (taken from PostgresNode.pm:1008)

This works for me.

Ugh! Sorry. I meant "The explicit teardowns are useless". That's not
harmful but it is done by PostgresNode.pm automatically(implicitly)
and we don't do that in the existing scripts.

As I said upthread the relationship between receiveTLI and
recoveryTargetTLI is not confirmed yet at the point.
findNewestTimeLine() simply searches for the history file with the
largest timeline id so the returned there's a case where the timeline
id that the function returns is not a future of the latest checkpoint
TLI. I think that the fact that rescanLatestTimeLine() checks the
relationship is telling us that we need to do the same in the path as
well.
In my previous proposal, it is done just after the line the patch
touches but it can be in the if (fetching_ckpt) branch.
regards.
