This has caused some buildfarm breakage, in the module that runs the
collate.linux.utf8 test.
Currently it is coded to run like this:
my @checklog;
my $cmd ="./pg_regress --psqldir=$installdir/bin --dlpath=. "
."$inputdir --port=$buildport collate.linux.utf8";
@checklog = `cd $pgsql/src/test/regress && $cmd 2>&1`;
and the error it now gets is:
./pg_regress: unrecognized option '--psqldir=/home/bf/bfr/root/HEAD/inst/bin'
TBH I'm not 100% convinced that removing the ability to have pg_regress
handle temprary installation management is a good thing.
