Not to worry, those will be differences in error message wording, but

What did this error come from? (cf regression.diffs)

I'm not sure: on the one hand, that evil join of mine returns the entire
contents of a table, and the connection gets confused. Smaller joins work.
Maybe it doesn't happen to you because you don't put in such a useless
select (What do you want 750440 rows for?) On the other hand vacuum analyze
table_name doesn't work for me but obviously does for everyone else, so at
least something is wrong with my setup.
