interesting approach would be to assume the /bin directory is ../bin
from the data directory. That would work for some installs,
particularly for people moving things around, but again, it is worth
trying to default something

Just a thought: To make things a bit easier, the bindir options of
pg_upgrade (-b/-B, --old-bindir/--new-bindir) could be made optional, I

is in. And the old bindir could be found out by looking at the
postmaster.opts file
