Hmm, apparently some sort of communication problem, since the postmaster
seems to think everything's fine. Maybe a firewall blocking packets
to the port that got selected? Another possibility is that you have
PGPORT or related variables set in your shell environment, and that's
leading libpq to try to connect to the wrong place. (I thought we had
pg_regress try to clear those, but maybe it doesn't.) What platform
is this anyway?
