fairywren has now done this twice in the pg_validatebackupCheck step:

exec failed: Bad address at /home/pgrunner/bf/root/HEAD/pgsql.build/../pgs=
ql/src/test/perl/TestLib.pm line 340.
 at /home/pgrunner/bf/root/HEAD/pgsql.build/../pgsql/src/test/perl/TestLib=
.pm line 340.

I'm a tad suspicious that it needs another perl2host()
somewhere, but the log isn't very clear as to where.

More generally, I wonder if we ought to be trying to
centralize those perl2host() calls instead of sticking
them into individual test cases.
