Ah, OK. Thanks. That makes visibly the whole set of modules more consistent.

Yes, let's remove that and pass the database name to getConnStr().

I have done as well additional tests on Windows and this patch is
showing a green status.

A separate issue, but as long as we are working on this set of tests:
I have noticed that config_default.pl is missing the flag tap_tests in
its list. See the patch attached. Could you apply that as well and
backpatch?

I have as well noticed that RewindTest.pm is missing "1;" on its last
line. When this is loaded this would lead to compilation errors.
