If it's optional, then to make it useful for the problem at hand, we'd
have to expose the option clear up to the psql command line, which seems
like a lotta work.

At the moment I think a "sleep" in the contrib makefile is sufficient
(though note I intended to apply it only to installcheck not the other
actions ;-))
