+1. Having the data folders being removed even in case of a failure is
really annoying.

I agree on all points re your review. Keeping tempdirs is really needed, the tempdir name change is good, the  the rest I'm not keen on.

I've addressed the need to get stderr from psql in a patch I'll submit separately, which provides a thinner wrapper around IPC::Run for more complex needs, then uses that for the existing 'psql' function. It also provides a 'psql_check' that dies on error.

I'll incorporate the wanted changes into that patch.
