Hmm, doesn't sound like that ought to be slow.
I did manage to reproduce dodo's failures by running xid_wraparound
manually on mamba's very slow host:
$ time make -s installcheck PROVE_FLAGS=--timer
# +++ tap install-check in src/test/modules/xid_wraparound +++
[13:37:49] t/001_emergency_vacuum.pl .. 1/? # poll_query_until timed out
executing this query:
#
# SELECT NOT EXISTS (
# SELECT *
# FROM pg_database
# WHERE age(datfrozenxid) >
current_setting('autovacuum_freeze_max_age')::int)
#
# expecting this output:
# t
# last actual query output:
# f
# with stderr:
# Tests were run but no plan was declared and done_testing() was not seen.
# Looks like your test exited with 4 just after 1.
[13:37:49] t/001_emergency_vacuum.pl .. Dubious, test returned 4 (wstat 1024,
0x400)
All 1 subtests passed

declared and done_testing() was not seen.

Each of those two failures looks just like something that dodo has
shown at one time or another. So it's at least plausible that
"slow machine" is the whole explanation. I'm still wondering
though if there's some effect that causes the test's runtime to
be unstable in itself, sometimes leading to timeouts.
