4. Fix the Windows special case so that we test in C locale not en_US locale (is this even possible on that platform?) Should we be using --no-locale in pg_regress ... or wouldn't that help?
--no-locale does work on Windows - I recently added it to the buildfarm script's initdb settings to handle an odd Windows issue - I forget where, but possibly in the PL installcheck tests which I recently got working. How things will work with that setting on a non-English locale box I don't know - it might help if we had a Windows buildfarm member from one of our colleagues in a non-English speaking country.
FWIW, I just added --no-locale to the initdb args in pg_regress.sh on loris and got a clean run of make check.
Regarding the race condition, it certainly sounds like something that needs more than a bandaid.
