On Windows, a backend exiting resets its connection, and the client discards any data not yet read, including the FATAL message of a terminated backend. isolationtester polls one connection at a time, so when it waits on a different session the message can get lost, failing the permutation and the tests that run after it. wait_cleanup in injection_points (down to v17) and slot_creation_error in test_decoding (down to v15) have this pattern, and have been failing randomly in the buildfarm. Let's skip them on Windows. The cause of the instabilities is proving to be tricky to deal with, pointing for example at29992a6a50. This will be tackled later, perhaps with a backpatch (or perhaps with a HEAD-only solution), but it is difficult to be sure at this stage of the work. In theory,a8458f508ashould make a revert of29992a6a50(revert of a revert!) safe on WIN32. Note that278cdea6b9, that has introduced the isolation test slot_creation_error in test_decoding, has mentioned the potential output instability.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
