src/test/subscription/t/029_on_error.pl has been failing reliably on the five
AIX buildfarm members:

# poll_query_until timed out executing this query:
# SELECT subskiplsn = '0/0' FROM pg_subscription WHERE subname = 'sub'
# expecting this output:
# t
# last actual query output:
# f
# with stderr:
timed out waiting for match: (?^:LOG:  done skipping logical replication transaction finished at 0/1D30788) at t/029_on_error.pl line 50.

I've posted five sets of logs (2.7 MiB compressed) here:

The members have not actually uploaded these failures, due to an OOM in the
Perl process driving the buildfarm script.  I think the OOM is due to a need
for excess RAM to capture 029_on_error_subscriber.log, which is 27MB here.  I
will move the members to 64-bit Perl.  (AIX 32-bit binaries OOM easily:
