The point I was trying to make was that if you are going to have a
"--logdir" option, then IMO that option should do nothing other than
change the destination for the logs. In other words, current behaviour
is effectively --logdir=console, so --logdir=some_other_folder should
not have some side-effect causing the log to get split into multiple
files.

If you want to split logs, then I thought Kuroda-San's suggestion [1]
sounded better ---  (a) mimic pg_upgrade more closely and (b)
reconsider if -logdir is needed at all.
