Pushed with minor adjustments. Notably, I didn't like the way you'd
fixed the issues in pgbench.c. The issue seems to be that those compilers
note that coerceToBool doesn't initialize its output argument in all
code paths, and don't note that the callers only examine the output
if it returns true. So I thought it was better to make coerceToBool
always set the output to something. That way we aren't totally giving
up error detection in the callers: if there were a code path that used
the output variable without even having called coerceToBool, we'd still
hear about it.
