How do you attach fast enough, so not all is over before you are able to
attach ?
I'd like to debug initdb failure on Windows (postgres executable not
found) when
running make check with disabled is_admin check and --prefix=/postgres
in msys.
The program "postgres" is needed by initdb but was not found in the
same directory as
"j:/postgres/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/install/postgres/bin/initdb".
