After further staring at that, I think it's some sort of mingw path
weirdness. I notice that the initdb output refers to the PGDATA
directory as
c:/mingw/msys/1.0/home/pgrunner/bf/root/HEAD/pgsql.build/src/test/recovery/tmp_check/t_014_unlogged_reinit_main_data/pgdata
and then after that we see "pg_ctl start" succeeding with just
/home/pgrunner/bf/root/HEAD/pgsql.build/src/test/recovery/tmp_check/t_014_unlogged_reinit_main_data/pgdata
but this isn't working:
/home/pgrunner/bf/root/HEAD/pgsql.build/src/test/recovery/tmp_check/tmp_test_esA3
perhaps because it lacks the "c:/mingw/msys/1.0" prefix.
Still no opinion about how to fix it.
