Work around Msys weakness in Testlib.pm's command_like() When output of IPC::Run::run () is redirected to scalar references, in certain circumstances the Msys perl does not correctly detect that the end of file has been seen, making the test hang indefinitely. One such circumstance is when the command is 'pg_ctl start', and such a change was made in commit f13ea95f9e. The workaround, which only applies on MSys, is to redirect the output to temporary files and then read them in when the process has finished.
Patch by me, reviewed and tweaked by Tom Lane.
