Some old buildfarm may complain when it comes to that, like some of
Tom's stuff (?).

Documentation is required in regress.sgml, yes.

The structure is strange, it seems to me that we should target things
so as we have only one PG_TEST_FILE_TRIM_LINES defined in the tree,

splitting things into two pieces for clarity with some tweaks.  I have
changed things to use system_log() at the end, with fat-commas to link
