IIRC we don't normally add this, because we don't want to "assign
bugs" to things in beta. Also IIRC, didn't Berkus set up a whole
separate list that people are supposed to report beta bugs on? (no, I
don't agree with that, but that was the intention of pgsql-testers -
and I was voted down at the time).

We can certainly look at changing that policy, but that's the *reason*
why it's not on there at all now...
