Just FYI - here is an extreme case. And note that I have applied proposed patch.
When `pg_basebackup -D data_N2 -R` is used:
```
primary_conninfo = 'user=hayato ... dbname=hayato ...
```
But when `pg_basebackup -d "" -D data_N2 -R` is used:
```
primary_conninfo = 'user=hayato ... dbname=replication
```
