Hello, hackers!

When running tests for version 15, we found a conflict between 
regression tests namespace & transactions due to recent changes [1].

IIUC the conflict was caused by

+SET search_path to public, test_ns_schema_1;
+CREATE SCHEMA test_ns_schema_2
+       CREATE VIEW abc_view AS SELECT a FROM abc;

because the parallel regression test transactions had already created 
the table abc and was trying to drop it.

ISTM the patch diff.patch fixes this problem...
