No your fix is right.  The failure is probably the result of a botched
merge of long(ish) time ago; I've bever bothered to look into it better,
since the test has been extended and improved in the `testusuite-work'
branch (where it also works meaningfully under "make installcheck"),
making the failure disappear there.

Feel free to push the patch to master.

Thanks, and sorry for the noise,
  Stefano
