I have thought about this and there are potentially several options
specified to pg_upgrade that could be passed into scripts:

  -O, --new-options=OPTIONS     new cluster options to pass to the server
  -P, --new-port=NEWPORT        new cluster port number (default 50432)
  -u, --user=NAME               cluster superuser (default "root")

However, if we pass these items into the scripts, we then force these
values to be used, even if the user wants to use a different value.  It
is a balance between supplying defaults vs. requiring the user to supply
or change the values used during the ugprade.

At this point, I have favored _not_ supplying defaults in the script. 
Do you have an alternative argument in favor of supplying defaults?
