So it appears that in v10,

    ./configure ... --enable-tap-tests ...
    make
    make install
    cd contrib/test_decoding
    make check

fails due to failure to install test_decoding into the tmp_install
tree, while it works in v11.  Moreover, that's not specific to
gaur: it happens on my Linux box too.  I'm not very sure why only
three buildfarm animals are unhappy --- maybe in the buildfarm
context it requires a specific combination of options to show the
problem.

There's no obvious difference between bedda9fbb and 6dd690be3,
so I surmise that that patch depended somehow on some previous
work that only went into v11 not v10.  Haven't found what, yet.
