With a quite different error though: PANIC: ERRORDATA_STACK_SIZE exceeded
Hm. So we have a *occasional* stack size exceeded failure and an
occasional spinlock error in test_shm_mq. I'm inclined to think that
this is a shm_mq problem, and not a more general locking problem - it
seems likely, but not guaranteed, that that'd have materialized
elsewhere.
Robert: IIRC there was some problems with shm_mq tests being stuck
before, right?
