Now it's my turn to feel much better. The tests that failed were float8
(which is the NaN glibc weirdness we already know about -- I forget the
specifics, but it was tracked down -- although, I had thought that would
be fixed for 6.5.3, but I guess I was mistaken), datetime (which you've
explained), geometry (which failed due to a floating point roundoff
error), and misc (which didn't like the pgaccess preferences tables
being in there).
I'm glad it was something that simple.
