Re: [Fwd: Re: race condition for drop schema cascade?]

I have rebuild the filesystem on my indy (MIPS) that Andrew reported on. The first run completed 100%, I would give
it a couple more runs before we can say its the filesystem not Postgresql that was causing the drop to fail.

I have seen this failure several times, but not consistently, on the
buildfarm member otter (Debian/MIPS) and possible on others, and am
wondering if it indicates a possible race condition on DROP SCHEMA CASCADE.

Hard to see what, considering that there's only one backend touching
that tablespace in the test. I'd be inclined to wonder if there's
a filesystem-level problem on that platform. What filesystem are you
running on anyway?
