I completely agree with your analysis. Fixes by 3f0e786ccbf5 to oat
and the other modules tests came just a couple of days before
committing the main pg_db_role_setting commit 096dd80f3c so they were
forgotten to be included into it.

I support committing the same fix to pg_db_role_setting test and added
this minor fix as a patch to this thread.

Kind regards, and happy New year!
Pavel Borisov,
