These "ERROR" messages are in fact normal log output during the
regression test ... but they shouldn't be appearing on your screen!
I think that when you started the postmaster, you forgot to redirect
its stdout and stderr into a log file per the instructions.  The
regression tests will usually generate something like 50K of log output
(since they deliberately provoke a lot of errors...)

That's a little more disturbing, but you'll need to look at the
regression.diffs output to see if the difference is actually meaningful.
I suspect there are still a few queries in the rules test wherein the
order in which tuples are displayed is platform-dependent ... don't
worry about it if the differences turn out to look like that.

Patience, my boy ... the last 'numeric' test is pretty slow, but it's
not hung.
