I setup a simple example of this with 64 variations of TAP tests, BLKSZ 
and WAL blocksize. Unfortunately to make this work you have to commit a 
.travis.yml file to your fork.

build: https://travis-ci.org/decibel/postgres/builds/75692344
.travis.yml: https://github.com/decibel/postgres/blob/master/.travis.yml

Looks like we might have some problems with BLKSZ != 8...
