Spoonbill is very rarely (ie once every few months) failing like this:

[2016-08-29 18:15:35.273 CEST:57c45f88.52d4:8] LOG:  statement: SELECT
test_shm_mq_pipelined(16384, (select
string_agg(chr(32+(random()*95)::int), '') from
generate_series(1,270000)), 200, 3);
[2016-08-29 18:15:35.282 CEST:57c45f88.52d4:9] ERROR:  floating-point
exception

floating-point operation was signaled. This probably means an
out-of-range result or an invalid operation, such as division by zero.

Any ideas on what is causing this? IIrc we had issues with that specific
test on spoonbill (and other sparc based boxes) before so maybe we
failed to fix the issue completely...
