Thanks for the pointer!

Reading your previous report, my understanding is that the failure was
also caused by a checkpoint during the test. So the proposed fix, which
increases checkpoint_timeout to prevent such checkpoints,
seems consistent with that analysis.

So, barring any objections, I'll commit the patch.
