Thank you for reporting.  But I doubt the fix is correct.  Even that
this particular might work OK, I don't think it's safe to release
snapshots belonging to functions/procedures: it might affect them.  I
tend to think we must forbid wrapping WAIT FOR LSN with
functions/procedures.  I'll explore more on this today.
