I have some doubts about the new pg_config behavior of printing "not recorded" 
when an item is not known.  I doubt that this will cause automated users of 
this program to behave reasonably in error scenarios.  I think a more 
reasonable behavior would be to use a non-zero exit status and possibly print 
a message to stderr and nothing to stdout.
