I'm having to carry this patch in all my development branches for now
or I can't build on one of my regular dev machines, so I'm quite keen
to get this into the tree soon and would back-patch to 16.

I gather no one else is affected yet, but I assume you can see the
problem on a Mac by installing PostgreSQL with Homebrew/MacPorts, or
on CI if you do this to .cirrus.tasks.yml:

   setup_additional_packages_script: |
-    #pkg install -y ...
+    pkg install -y postgresql17-client
