BTW, it looks like the Windows buildfarm critters have a separate problem: they're failing with initdb: error: must specify a password for the superuser to enable md5 authentication One would imagine that even if we'd given a password to initdb, subsequent connection attempts would fail for lack of a password. There might not be any practical fix except forcing trust auth for the Windows critters. regards, tom lane
