Yes.  I wasn't clear in my email reply:

        http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2011-07/msg00092.php

When I said this will be fixed in 9.1, I meant pg_ctl will work in 9.1
for non-default socket directories, but when the 9.1 pg_upgrade accesses
the 8.4 server, it has to use the 8.4 pg_ctl to do it, and that can't be
fixed in a back-branch.

I think we can only call this fixed when the old and new server is >= PG
9.1.  Yeah, this isn't good, but it is the best we can do.
