The log traces (log_connections=true, log_disconnections=true,
log_statement='all') show that if I run without limiting
max_connections, the next tests start up before the copy is finished -
no wonder things get right royally screwed as a result.

It seems like the problem is in the Msys shell. It appears not to wait
correctly for a job to finish (Single tests are run in the foreground by
the shell, so no explicit 'wait' is run - I tried putting one in with no
effect). It's probably triggered by the copy test because it takes such
a long time. I have no idea why the parallelism of the tests should
affect it.

trying to find a workaround.

Does anyone have any contacts with the MINGW/MSys people?

cheers
