Well, the reason people normally use the port number is to do a live
check, but obviously when the script is created it isn't doing a check.
I am worried that if I do embed the port number in there, then if they
change the port after the upgrade, they now can't use the script. I
assume users would have PGPORT set before running the script, no?

Wow, I never thought of adding a path to those scripts, but it certainly
makes sense. I have created the attached patch which does this.
