I think this one:

http://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=bear&dt=2007-01-19%2006:06:02

is fallout from the autovacuum changes too - it seems that initdb is
picking a low value (20) for max_connections on that box and autovacuum
is acting as an additional client that will cause the maximum of allowed
connections to exceed during the parallel tests and therefor resulting
in the failure.
