We have what looks like a second report on HEAD and v19, different
pattern:
https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_stage_log.pl?nm=thorntail&dt=2026-10-28%2006%3A31%3A23&stg=recovery-check

From 001's primary logs:
2026-10-28 10:44:13.113 MSK [1706208:4] LOG: client backend (PID
1706227) was terminated by signal 10: Bus error
2026-10-28 10:44:13.113 MSK [1706208:5] DETAIL: Failed process was
running: BASE_BACKUP (CHECKPOINT 'fast', MAX_RATE 32);

If something else is going on, I'm not quite sure what it is yet.
