Another issue (I think):
Attached is a program (and output as a .txt file) that gives the following (repeatable) error:
$ ./casanova_test.sh
\timing on
drop table if exists t1;
Time: 333.159 ms
create table t1 (i int);
Time: 155.827 ms
create index t1_i_idx on t1 using minmax(i);
Time: 204.031 ms
insert into t1 select generate_series(1, 25000000);
Time: 126312.302 ms
analyze t1;
ERROR: could not truncate file base/21324/26339_vm to 41 blocks: it's only 1 blocks now
Time: 472.504 ms
