Hm, the TAP trace makes it look like the postmaster start does actually
work, but pg_ctl isn't correctly waiting for that to happen. (The
complaint about "already exists" seems to be from the second start
attempt, and is exactly what to expect there.) I could believe that
I'd fat-fingered the PID comparison logic in test_postmaster_connection,
but I don't understand how it would work from a command prompt but not
from a script. Any ideas?
