The PERL5LIB bit is clearly good, but please commit it separately.

"make" offers a choice. If I had to settle for just one of its behaviors, I
would choose -k. One can emulate "make -S" by killing "make -k" after the
first error, but there's no straightforward way to emulate "make -k" in terms
of "make -S". Thus, I prefer the ancient vcregress decision in this area. In
any event, a proposal to change it would need its own thread and a patch that
changes all targets facing this decision.

This "vcregress bincheck" differs from "make -C src/bin installcheck" by using
"check" semantics, and it differs from "make -C src/bin check" by skipping the
pg_upgrade test suite. (I don't have any point in saying that beyond
clarifying the record.)

I endorse Heikki's argument for having omitted the configuration flag:

The comment pertained only to the TESTDIR environment variable. Adding the
local %ENV is unnecessary. I think you can just delete the comment; there's
nothing noteworthy about setting a different TESTDIR value for each suite.
The PERL5LIB and PG_REGRESS updates need happen just once per bincheck, though
keeping them here seems good for the benefit of future TAP targets.
