Cool, how long does it take to run the regression tests?

Awhile back I got burnt by a gap in that testing methodology:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2006-12/msg00237.php

I didn't do anything about it at the time, but now I am tempted to
modify LookupOpclassInfo() so that CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS disables
its internal cache.  Any objections?
