Not really. Before, pg_regress put the output of its internal make
install run into a log file. Now make is just replicating that
behavior. I would agree that that seems kind of obsolete now, because
it's really just another sub-make. So if no one disagrees, I'd just
remove the log file redirection in temp-install.
