And what happens is this:
http://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=narwhal&dt=2014-02-14%2017%3A00%3A02
namely, it gets through plperl now and then chokes with the same
symptoms on pltcl. So I guess we need the same hack in pltcl.
The fun never stops ...

(BTW, narwhal is evidently not trying to build plpython. I wonder
why not?)
