Also worth noting is that anole failed its first try at the new
deadlock-parallel isolation test:
https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=anole&dt=2019-08-01%2015%3A48%3A16
What that looks like is the queries got stuck and eventually
isolationtester gave up and canceled the test. So I'm suspicious
that there's a second bug in the parallel deadlock detection code.
Possibly relevant factoids: all three of the animals in question
run HEAD with force_parallel_mode = regress, and there's reason
to think that their timing behavior could be different from other
animals (anole and gharial run on HPUX, while hyrax uses
CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS).
