v4-0002-Add-test-SCRAM-iteration-changes-with-psql-passwo.patch (application/octet-stream) patch v4-0002
v4-0001-Refactor-background-psql-TAP-functions.patch (application/octet-stream) patch v4-0001

The attached v4 fixes some incorrect documentation (added by me in v3), and
fixes that background_psql() didn't honor on_error_stop and extraparams passed
by the user.  I've also added a commit which implements the \password test from
the SCRAM iteration count patchset as well as cleaned up a few IPC::Run
includes from test scripts.
