Here is a proposal patch which:

- works around pgbench command splitting on spaces,
if postgres sources are in a strangely named directory…
I tested within a directory named "pg .* dir".

- works aroung "glob" lack of portability by reading the directory
directly and filtering with a standard re (see list_files).

- adds a few comments

- removes a spurious i option on an empty re
