Sure.  If I remove the client_min_messages hack from HEAD, then on
my dev workstation I get the attached test diff; that reproduces
quite reliably on a couple of machines.  However, running that
diff on prairiedog's host gets the failure attached second more
often than not.  (Sometimes it will pass.)
