It looks to me like this is just a possible result from sufficiently
weird timing. gcircle_tbl and gpolygon_tbl are temp tables made in
the create_index test, which runs just before sanity_check. If the
backend running create_index hadn't finished deleting its temp tables
yet, they could still be present when sanity_check looks in pg_class.
Curious that we've never seen this on any other platform though.
