It's the latter.  I don't think I can add a client-side timeout into
sqlsmith elegantly.  IMHO it's better to write another test tool that
just re-runs the queries that were logged with a timeout by sqlsmith and
investigates their timeout-behavior more closely.

Hmm, I thought I found a workflow that would yield sqlsmith's coverage
without integrating it into the regession tests.  This is what I did:

    make install
    initdb /tmp/gcov
    pg_ctl -D /tmp/gcov start
    make installcheck
    pg_ctl -D /tmp/gcov stop
    make coverage-clean
    pg_ctl -D /tmp/gcov start
    sqlsmith --target='dbname=regression' --max-queries=10000
    pg_ctl -D /tmp/gcov stop
    make coverage-html

It seems to yield a pure sqlsmith-only coverage report, as a "make
coverage-html" before the "make coverage-clean" yields a report with
much higher score.  Maybe there are drawbacks to the workflow you are
suggesting?  I just re-did it with the current sqlsmith code, and it's
up by 25% compared to the latest tested revision:

| revision | overall | parser |
|----------+---------+--------|
| a4c1989  |    26.0 |   20.4 |
| ee099e6  |    33.8 |   25.8 |

I also put the report here, in case someone wants to look at certain
details, or make suggestions into what directions to best extend the
grammar to increase coverage.

It's not had a proper release yet, but the code is available via github
in all its rapid-prototypesque glory:
