> Note that this is a known issue Yeah. We have attempted to work around this before, but failed to find a solution without more downsides than upsides. I will be interested to look at this patch, but lack time for it right now. Anybody else?
Ah, I didn't find that mention in the documentation when I was trying to get this working. Sorry about that!
My argument in favour of considering this patch is that making "./configure; make; make check" work on current major operating systems makes it easier for others to contribute in the future. I think the disadvantage of this patch is it makes pg_regress harder to understand, because it requires an #ifdef for this OS specific behaviour, and obscures the command lines of the child processes it spawns.
