So the issue here is that we are running this command:

pg_dumpall --exclude-database .*

And on that Windows machine, .* is being expanded to .gitignore, so
pg_dumpall prints:

pg_dumpall: error: improper qualified name (too many dotted names): .gitignore

Instead of:

pg_dumpall: error: improper qualified name (too many dotted names): .*

I don't know why that glob-expansion only happens on jacana, and I
don't know how to fix it, either.
