On non-Windows machines, we use the Unix socket for connections to test postmasters, so there is no need to create a TCP socket. Furthermore, doing so causes failures due to port conflicts if two builds are carried out concurrently on one machine. (If the builds are done in different chroots, which is standard practice at least in Red Hat distros, there is no risk of conflict on the Unix socket.) Suppressing the TCP socket by setting listen_addresses to empty has long been standard practice for pg_regress, and pg_upgrade knows about this too ... but pg_upgrade's test.sh didn't get the memo. Back-patch to 9.2, and also sync the 9.2 version of the script with HEAD as much as practical.
The PostgreSQL contrib tree --------------------------- This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their usefulness. User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML documentation. When building from the source distribution, these modules are not built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can also build and install them all by running "gmake all" and "gmake install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected module, do the same in that module's subdirectory. Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database, you can simply do CREATE EXTENSION module_name; See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this procedure.
