Agreed; here on -committers is certainly no place for that. For the moment I'm just going to revert the change in pg_controldata output, because it occurred to me that pg_upgrade might not be the only tool side-swiped by that. We can put it back after we have some more-stable output format that such tools can start using. regards, tom lane
