No, I have never seen a serial failure, and when I get a paralell
failure, I run the serial to make sure it is just the paralell test, and
serial always passes.

No, different, as reported by Robert, but it usually has to do with the
contraint, trigger, and sanity tests.  I assume we just had a dependency
in the paralell regression tests and we just need to do an adjustment,
but looking at the diffs more closely, I see it is more serious.

OK.
