Public bug reported:

As noticed in Bug 1515473.

If you run the Mahara phpunit tests twice against the same database (by
doing "make phpunit") you get errors on the second run. Phpunit attempts
to tear down the test database and re-create it, but it misses some
items and errors out when it tries to recreate them, because they
already exist. This happens in Postgres or MySQL.

I'm guessing it's because there are some database entities that we
create through direct execution of DDL statements rather than through
XMLDB and install.xml files. Probably the teardown uses the install.xml
files to remove everything, misses the directly-created things, and then
the subsequent installer tries to re-create them.
