Re: pg_upgrade link mode

I told you I would never go for a production with link mode. However, I was
working with pg_upgrade copy mode and in the middle I got an error saying
missing some extensions. I rollback and start the operation after setting
everything up.
I don't know how it will behave in link mode if you fail in the middle.
