Hmm, Of course I tested this. It's passing on Linux boxes like crake and
prion, but failing on OSX and FBSD boxes.


I guess that's what we have a buildfarm for :-)


here's the error:


    #   Failed test 'pg_dumpall: option --exclude-database requires an argument: matches'
    #   at t/001_basic.pl line 154.
    #                   'pg_dumpall: option `--exclude-database' requires an argument
    # Try "pg_dumpall --help" for more information.
    # '
    #     doesn't match '(?^:pg_dumpall\:\ option\ \'\-\-exclude\-database\'\ requires\ an\ argument)'


Why is that backtick there? That looks like the culprit, coming from the
GetOpt implementation presumably.


I guess I can replace the first quote with a class containing ['`]


cheers
