Even though "pgsql-9.5" debian/tests/control clearly mentioned that it
must be run as root.

#postgresql-9.5-9.5.12/debian/tests/control
...
Restrictions: needs-root
..

Anyway that is another topic, but again that should be enough in term of
justification for releasing pam for Xenial.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  When installing postgresql, many warning msgs are raised
  Please refer to Original Description

  ## Corrections
  In trusty, escaping is missing but not the same symptom. NOT AFFECTED TO TRUSTY

  [Test Case]

  1. create ubuntu instance
  2. apt install postgresql

  [Regression Potentials]
  This change is quite small(just escaping), and it is not code changes but getenv script which made by debian. so risk is minimal in my opinion.

  This is due to the fact that unescaped brace are deprecated in Perl
  5.22.
