Well, I was at least hoping it was a problem here -- particularly since I
haven't been able to reproduce it. But, since it is not a local problem, I'm
glad I caught it -- on the first regression test run, no less. I've run a
dozen tests since without duplication.

Although, like you, Tom, I'm curious as to why it hadn't showed up before -- is
the fact that this is a slow machine a factor, possibly?

Although I am now much more leery of our regression suite -- this issue isn't
even tested, in reality. Do we have _any_ WAL-related tests? The parallel
testing is a good thing -- but I wonder what boundary conditions aren't getting
tested.
