Unsurprisingly I do agree with this. It's a big feature, and there's
imperfection. But I think it's a good start.

A very first such imperfection is that the buildfarm doesn't actually
excercise make check in contribs, just make installcheck... Which this
patch doesn't use because the tests require wal_level=logical and
max_replication_slots >= 2. Andrew said on IRC that maybe it's a good
idea to add a make-contrib-check stage to the buildfarm.

A patch fixing a couple of absolutely trivial things is attached.

Greetings,

Andres Freund
