If I redirect the output to a file (which is what the buildfarm client
actually does), it seems like it completes successfully, but I still get
a non-zero exit:

pgrunner(at)EC2AMAZ-GCB871B UCRT64 ~/bf
$ /usr/bin/perl -e 'chdir "root/HEAD/instkeep.2023-04-25_11-09-41";
system("bin/pg_ctl -D data-C -l logfile stop > stoplog 2>&1") ; print
"BANG\n" if $?; '
BANG

pgrunner(at)EC2AMAZ-GCB871B UCRT64 ~/bf
$ cat root/HEAD/instkeep.2023-04-25_11-09-41/stoplog
waiting for server to shut down.... done
server stopped

It seems more than odd that we get to where the "server stopped" massage
is printed but we get a failure.

cheers
