If you look at this failure case <https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=jacana&dt=2017-03-19%2000%3A00%3A18> you see:
t/002_pg_dump.........1..4449 # Looks like your test died before it could output anything. dubious Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00) DIED. FAILED tests 1-4449 Failed 4449/4449 tests, 0.00% okay That's really not helpful. We have no idea where things went wrong. ISTM that the test setup and breakdown code, both in individual tests and in PostgresNode.pm should be liberally sprinkled with diag() calls to make it easier to narrow down errors..
