commit    521f0458dcd7bb28636250cdfce9b1a3020cff4c
Author:   Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Date:     Tue Dec 08 22:14:46 2015 +0000

    Make failure to open psql's --log-file fatal.
    
    Commit 344cdff2c made failure to open the target of --output fatal.
    For consistency, the --log-file switch should behave similarly.
    Like the previous commit, back-patch to 9.5 but no further.
