I don't mind if this happens later on. I can send a patch as well if
necessary. There are a couple of places where things can be
consolidated using a single entry point:
- 010_pg_archivecleanup.pl
- PostgresNode::psql, where we could merge things.
- PostgresNode::poll_query_until
- PostgresNode::pg_recvlogical_upto
- TestLib::check_pg_config
- TestLib::program_help_ok
- TestLib::program_version_ok
- TestLib::program_options_handling_ok
- TestLib::command_like
- TestLib::command_like_safe
- TestLib::command_fails_like
- TestLib::command_checks_all

Thanks for adding this sanity check.

That may not be worth worrying as that's an ephemeral port range but it
can make the test a bit unstable...

Perhaps the tests should be skipped on Windows or just produce an error?
Like LDAP tests, libraries are supported on Windows but the hardcoded
paths make things harder to handle there.
