But maybe we could/should fix it anyway? Most regression tests switched to roles prefixed with regress_* so why not to do the same here?
The point of the test seems to be to ensure that the special system keywords, when quoted, are allowed to be used for role names. So the choice is to make the test conditional (if the role previously exists neither create or drop it - and since it existed it doesn't seem like its a problem to create it anyway) or to simply not bother testing "user" figuring that the other two roles suffice for testing this behavior. Changing it to a unlikely-to-conflict name doesn't help since that, I'd presume, is already being covered by some either sequence of statements.
If these tests can use pl/pgsql and DO-blocks the conditional execution of this one should be straight-forward to incorporate...
