Windows animals still produce mysterious pg_upgrade/004_subscription failures: [1] and [2] (and 006_transfer_modes also failed similarly since then: [3] and [4]). Unluckily, pg_upgrade_output.d/ content is still not shown in the failure logs, so we can only guess why the tests failed. I could not reproduce something alike locally, unfortunately — tried different approaches for several days, but without success, so if we could see the error/failure reason in the log it would be useful, I hope. Regarding 006_transfer_modes, I thought the reason we have no pg_upgrade_output.d/ is that the test removes it explicitly: [5], but I see no clean_node in 004_subscription, so maybe the log collection is yet to be fixed in the buildfarm client. Could you have a look, please?
