Right you are.

Code fix looks good, but I don't agree with creating a separate
test script for this --- that entails spinning up an entire new
server instance, which is an awful lot of cycles to expend in
every check-world run forevermore for this size of problem.
I'll just add the test case to 001_pgbench_with_server.pl instead.
Looking at the code coverage report [1], it seems we are also missing
any test that covers \if in the IFSTATE_IGNORED/IFSTATE_ELSE_FALSE
case. That code appears correct, but given this bug it seems prudent
to extend the test to cover that path too. I'll do that and push.
