One could argue at least as plausibly that we should allow optional '='
in all the other WITH clauses.  (That thought was why I renamed the
nonterminal to not refer to createdb.)

I'm also quite unimpressed with the notion of trying to suppress
knowledge of a syntax that is in active use by pg_dump, and perhaps
other tools too.
