The strange thing is hanging. Broken tests depending on locale are usual. But I didn't remember hanging.

So, if you do psql -c "..."
with both of those \watch  instructions, do either one hang? (I am now guessing "no")

I know that perl is using a special library to "remote control psql" (like a pseudo terminal, I guess).
[I had to abort some of the perl testing in Windows because that perl library didn't work with my psql in Windows]

Next, can you detect which process is hanging? (is it perl, the library, psql, ?).

It hangs in perl

but now I found there is dependency on PSQL_PAGER setting

it started pager in background, I had lot of zombie pspg processes

Unfortunately, when I unset this variable, the test hangs still

here is backtrace

It is waiting on reading from pipe probably

psql is living too, and it is waiting too

I am not sure, it is still doesn't work but probably there are some dependencies on my setting

PSQL_PAGER and PSQL_WATCH_PAGER

so this tests fails due my setting

[pavel@localhost postgresql.master]$ set |grep PSQL
PSQL_PAGER='pspg -X'
PSQL_WATCH_PAGER='pspg -X --stream'

Regards

Pavel


Ummm... We are testing PSQL \watch  and you potentially have a PSQL_WATCH_PAGER that is kicking in?
By chance does that attempt to read/process/understand the \watch ?
Also, if it is interfering with the stream, that would explain it.  The perl library is trying to "control" psql.
If it ends up talking to you instead... All bets are off, imo.  I don't know enough about PSQL_WATCH_PAGER.

Now I would be curious if you changed the test from
SELECT 1 \watch c=3 0.01 

to 
SELECT 1 \watch 0.01

because that should work.  Then I would test
SELECT \watch 0.01 c=3

If you are trying to parse the watch at all, that could break.  Then your code might be trying to "complain",
and then that is screwing up the planned interaction (Just Guessing).
