Short Description
Intermittent Regression test failure in create_misc

Long Description
After fetching the latest CVS yesterday. I ran the regression test several times in a row. Actually around 10x... in that time it failed two times the same way. I noticed that locking code was changed in CVS after the tag of BETA3 so I fetched from CVS the REL7_1_BETA3 tag. This one took around 12 tries but finally failed the same way.

I am running on a freshly installed OpenBSD 2.8 on a Petium III with 128M real mem and 256M swap. I didn't make any modifications to ulimits or other system settings other than adding bison and enabling soft updates (The test failed before and after enabling soft updates).

Postgresql was compiled with ./configure --enable-syslog after modifying "#define BLCKSZ 16384" in src/include/config.h.in

Here is the begining of regression.diffs The errors that follow the first one seem to all be related to the fact that this one failed and the that onek and onek2 do not exist.
