      Description

      A WT Patch build hit a failure in test_bug019 that appears to be the same issue described in WT-6353. In that ticket, the bug couldn't be reproduced, so Susan LoVerso added debugging information to the test in the hopes of better diagnosing the next failure.  

      The test is at: https://spruce.mongodb.com/task/wiredtiger_ubuntu1804_ppc_unit_test_patch_7365ea188aaf1aa094824def8822d816752dcab2_5f1b321ee3c33156dbb7f085_20_07_24_19_10_43/logs

      The failure shown there is:
