The test for parallel create of BRIN indexes added by commit 8225c2fd40
happens to be unstable - a background transaction (e.g. auto-analyze)
may hold back global xmin for the initial VACUUM / CREATE INDEX. If the
cleanup happens before the next CREATE INDEX, the indexes will not be
exactly the same.
This is the same issue as e2933a6e11, so fix it the same way by making
the table TEMPORARY, which uses an up-to-date cutoff xmin that is not
held back by other processes.
Reported by Alexander Lakhin, who also suggested the fix.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
