That way we make sure that initdb's time zone setting code is exercised.
This doesn't add an extra test, it just alters an existing test.

Use disallowed instead of reserved, cannot instead of can not, and
double quotes instead of single quotes.
Also add a test to cover the bug which started this discussion.
Per discussion with Tom.
The original code was a bit clunky; make it more amenable for further
reuse by creating a new Perl package PostgresNode, which is an
object-oriented representation of a single server, with some support
routines such as init, start, stop, psql. This serves as a better basis
on which to build further test code, and enables writing tests that use
more than one server without too much complication.
This commit modifies a lot of the existing test files, mostly to remove
explicit calls to system commands (pg_ctl) replacing them with method
calls of a PostgresNode object. The result is quite a bit more
straightforward.
Also move some initialization code to BEGIN and INIT blocks instead of
having it straight in as top-level code.
This commit also introduces package RecursiveCopy so that we can copy
whole directories without having to depend on packages that may not be
present on vanilla Perl 5.8 installations.
I also ran perltidy on the modified files, which changes some code sites
that are not otherwise touched by this patch. I tried to avoid this,
but it ended up being more trouble than it's worth.

This eliminates many seconds of test duration and the cause to invoke
"rm -rf", which is typically unavailable on Windows.

Commit c67a86f7da caught most of these,
but this negative test escaped notice. The test did pass, for the wrong
reason, under affected configurations.

Some of the TAP tests were supposing that PG programs would accept switches
after non-switch arguments on their command lines. While GNU getopt_long()
does allow that, our own implementation does not, and it's nowhere
suggested in our documentation that such cases should work. Adjust the
tests to use only the documented syntax.
Back-patch to 9.4, since without this the TAP tests fail when run with
src/port's getopt_long() implementation.
