The failure on HEAD appears to be a configuration problem (SHMMAX too
small or some such). I'm not sure why the 8.0 branch doesn't fail
likewise (maybe HEAD's shmem request is just over the boundary?).
The contrib failure in 8.0 is something we had decided not to try to
fix, IIRC, given that tsearch is going away anyway.
Is it worth trying to fix things so that the buildfarm skips tests that
are known to fail and not deemed worth fixing?
