I notice that the buildfarm appears to run initdb with syncing enabled
("syncing data to disk ... ok" in the initdb steps). Whereas pg_regress
uses --no-sync.
I wonder if that's what makes the difference? Now that you reproduced
it, does it still reproduce with --no-sync added?
Also worth noting that pg_regress doesn't go through pg_ctl...
