On further reflection, 002_pg_upgrade.pl may not fail with old IPC::Run. It may just create a database with an unintended name, losing some test coverage. > I'm tempted to lobotomize the new test case on Windows until > we have that resolved. Sounds fine. The pg_upgrade suite adequately tests appendShellString() and appendConnStrVal() with the larger character repertoire, so it's enough for pg_createsubscriber to test just a space or so.
