force_parallel_mode=regress is a good way of testing this because it
keeps the leader from doing the work, which would likely dodge any
bugs that happened to exist.  If you want to test something in the
regular regression tests, using force_parallel_mode=on is probably a
good way to do it.

Also note that there are 3 buildfarm members that test with
force_parallel_mode=regress on a regular basis, so it's not like there
is no automated coverage of this area.
