Looking closer, what must have happened is that the psql session ended
before IPC::Run could jam 'SELECT 1' into its stdin. I wonder if this
could be stabilized by doing 'psql -c "SELECT 1"' and not having to
write anything to the child process stdin? But I'm not sure this test
case is valuable enough to put a great deal of work into.

OK by me, though I note you misspelled "mallory" in the comment.
