Rewrite pg_regress as a C program instead of a shell script.
This allows it to be used on Windows without installing mingw (though you do still need 'diff'), and opens the door to future improvements such as message localization. Magnus Hagander and Tom Lane.

-The parallel regression test script (gmake check) is known to lock up
-on PA-RISC when run under HP's Bourne shells: /usr/bin/sh and
-/sbin/sh. To fix this problem, you will need PHCO_30269 with its
-dependent patch or successor patches:
-
- PHCO_30269 s700_800 cumulative sh-posix(1) patch
- PHCO_29816 s700_800 rc(1M) scripts cumulative patch
-
-To work around this problem, use ksh to run the regression script:
-
- gmake SHELL=/bin/ksh check
-
-If you see that the tests have stopped making progress and only a shell
-process is consuming CPU, kill the shell process and start over with the
-above command.
