Every so often, buildfarm member skylark reports a "StartDb:2" failure, as for instance here: http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=skylark&dt=2007-06-10%2023:00:01 but the logs contain no trace of any actual failure. What's happening, and why is the buildfarm failing to record any useful information?
There is certainly something odd happening on the box. Magnus and I discussed it about a month ago and he was going to test something I suggested, but I'm not sure if he did. I have committed some small buildfarm changes that might take care of things. Marcus, can you please upgrade your run_build.pl to CVS HEAD (1.83) and we'll continue to keep an eye on things?
