Well, my assumption is that they are unlikely to move the old _binary_
directory, but they are more likely to change the port number. My point
is that if they change the port number to the default from a
non-default, or they set the PGPORT environment variable, the script
will work. If we hard-code the port, it would not work.
In fact, pg_upgrade defaults to use port 50432 if they don't supply one.
We would embed the port number only if they supplied a custom port
number, but again, they might change that before going live with the new
server.
I guess I am confused why you would use pg_upgrade, and start the new
server on a non-default port that isn't the same as PGPORT.
