BUG #6462: rpmbuild fails during regression tests on SMP ARM machines
The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 6462
Logged by: Mark Langsdorf
Email address: mark.langsdorf@calxeda.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.0.6
Operating system: Fedora fc15
Description:
I'm trying to build 9.0.6 for Fedora 15 on an ARM (Cortex A9) SMP processor
. The code compiles but the regression tests fail.
If I reboot the ARM system with "maxcpus=1", the rpmbuild completes. So each
individual test in the regression suite passes, but they fail when run in
parallel.
I have also reproduced the problem and solution with 9.1.2 on ARM systems.
What can I do to help resolve this problem?

Does this patch make it better?
