dory failed like this today:
============== shutting down postmaster ==============
pg_ctl: could not open PID file
"c:/pgbuildfarm/pgbuildroot/HEAD/pgsql.build/src/test/regress/./tmp_check/data/postmaster.pid":
Permission denied
This is probably a stupid question, but after commit 0ba06e0,

because it was included by c.h, because it was included by
postgres_fe.h?
