skink's test_decoding failures in 9.4 branch - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

I can't help noticing that the failure rate on skink has gone from
"rare" to "100%" since 3d5b227:

I think we need to put some effort into figuring out what's up there.

Also, this morning curculio showed what might be the same issue:

I've still had no luck reproducing it here, though.  Wonder if it is
specific to certain compilers.
