Yeah, the buildfarm is *very* unhappy with this.

That one is just failure to follow the guidelines, and is easily
fixed by adjusting the test case.

This is a bit messier. But I think that the discrepancy is not
really the fault of this patch: rather, it's a bug in the way the
GSS support was put into libpq. I thought we had a policy that
all builds would recognize all possible parameters and then
perhaps fail later. Certainly the SSL parameters are implemented
that way. The #if's disabling GSS stuff in PQconninfoOptions[]
are just broken, according to that policy.
