The problem is that if the postmaster takes more than 60 seconds to

If the postmaster takes that long to start listening, I'd say we need to
fix the postmaster not pg_regress.
We need both, I think. I am still trying to find out why it's taking so
long. This is on the 8.0 branch, though. Later branches seem to be working.
I'm inclined to run the psql test one more time to make sure we can
actually connect, and if not then fail at this point.
How does that differ from just iterating the loop one more time?
There is no guarantee that at the end of the loop we have connected
successfully to postgres.
I will post a patch that shows what I suggest.

TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
