well what we are looking at here are actually two issues - one is the
regression failure - diff -a produces:
http://www.kaltenbrunner.cc/files/citext.diff.txt
the other problem is that each of those failures leaves spoonbill with a
running postgresql instance that causes a follow up failure with the
next buildfarm run because there is not enough shared memory left for
another instance ...
