I guess we can try to do something about that, but the make situation is
overly complicated. I don't really want to emulate having randomly differing
database names just because a test is in contrib/ rather than src/.

We could talk about adjusting the behavior on the make side instead,
perhaps, but something needs to be done there eventually.

Having said that, I'm not sure that the first meson-capable buildfarm
version needs to support cross-version-upgrade testing.
			

Well, I want to store up as little future work as possible. This particular issue won't be much of a problem for several months until we branch the code, as we don't do database adjustments for a same version upgrade. At that stage I think a small modification to AdjustUpgrade.pm will do the trick. We just need to remember to do it.
