I like how it looks in the expected test output.  Didn't review the code
closely, but it looks reasonable in a quick glance.

Whitespace nitpick: pgindent will do something very annoying with this:

I suggest to split the line in the first comma, not in the parens.

I suggest something like "Combined flags are displayed for source-level
macros that take into account the value of more than one raw bit, such
as HEAP_XMIN_FROZEN".  (We probably don't want an exhaustive list, which
becomes annoying to maintain; users can refer to the source file.)

There's a typo "bites" in a comment.
