Bug reference:      15594
Logged by:          Alexander Lakhin
Email address:      exclusion@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 11.1
Operating system:   Ubuntu 18.04
Description:

Some tests in contrib/test_decoding/output_iso/ occasionally fail.
To reproduce it reliable you can do:
# sed 's/ mxact / $(shell printf "mxact %.0s" `seq 1000` ) /' -i
contrib/test_decoding/Makefile
# make check -C contrib/test_decoding/

...
test delayed_startup              ... ok
test ondisk_startup               ... ok
test concurrent_ddl_dml           ... ok
test oldest_xmin                  ... ok
test snapshot_transfer            ... ok

The differences that caused some tests to fail can be viewed in the
file ".../contrib/test_decoding/output_iso/regression.diffs".  A copy of the
test summary that you see
above is saved in the file
".../contrib/test_decoding/output_iso/regression.out".

I observe this issue with the tests: mxact, delayed_startup, and
ondisk_startup.
