FWIW I usually run the test suite with parallelization (it is just so much quicker) and these days rarely see spurious failures as a result. This is on Mac OS X, YMMV.

I use regrtest.py -j 4 on a Intel Quad Core on Linux: 4 tests are really running at the same time, and I only get only one spurious failure: test_ioctl. It should be easy to fix this test.

Or we can maybe write a blacklist of tests not compatible with multiprocessing mode (or the opposite, a whitelist of compatible tests).
