This doc sentence about pg_upgrade is now inaccurate:
If doing <option>--check</> with a running old server of a pre-9.1 version,
and the old server is using a Unix-domain socket directory that is
different from the default built into the new <productname>PostgreSQL</>
installation, set <envar>PGHOST</> to point to the socket location of the
old server. (This is not relevant on Windows.)
The new detail is that this also affects non-live check and non-check
upgrades because pg_ctl -w doesn't work for pre-9.1 servers with the
socket in the current directory --- that was not known when this
documentation paragraph was written.
Applied doc patch attached. The wording became pretty complex so I
tried to simplify it.
