So this is geniuinely interesting. When the machine is really loaded (as
in 6 animals running on a vm at the same time, incuding valgrind), psql
sometimes doesn't get the WARNING message from a shutdown. Instead it
gets
# psql:<stdin>:3: server closed the connection unexpectedly
#       This probably means the server terminated abnormally
#       before or while processing the request.
# psql:<stdin>:3: connection to server was lost

We can obviously easily make the test accept both - but are we ok with
the client sometimes not getting the message?

Andres Freund
