What about the Cygwin port --- will it have the same issue? If so what

No, Cygwin works OK - still have occasional issues with non-empty tablespaces, but not this issue. The Cygwin environment itself emulates unix sockets, I think that's the reason.
Hm --- have you checked it since I changed the script?
yes. See http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_history.pl?nm=gibbon&br=HEAD
port/cygwin.h claims that older versions of Cygwin don't have Unix sockets, and there's a hack in pg_config_manual.h that sure looks like it will disable HAVE_UNIX_SOCKETS on any Cygwin version. I'm inclined to think that pg_regress should play it safe and assume no Unix sockets on Cygwin.
Mine is fairly up to date - fairly sure I ran an update in the last month or so, and it was only installed 6 months ago anyway.
I have no idea how far back you would have to go to be missing unix sockets. Several years I suspect.
