Hmm. One way I can think of to keep the test would be something like
that to avoid problems with pg_ctl redirecting the server's stderr to
stdout (hence the tweak for log_min_messages):
pg_ctl start -s -o '-C data_checksums -c log_min_messages=fatal'
This would print the parameter, while getting to stderr mostly a
"could not start server". Would that work for you?
