I propose change it to:
ereport(ERROR,
errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_OBJECT_DEFINITION),
errmsg("can not merge partition \"%s\" together with
partition \"%s\"",
second_name->relname, first_name->relname),
errdetail("lower bound of partition \"%s\" is not
equal to the upper bound of partition \"%s\"",
second_name->relname, first_name->relname),
errhint("ALTER TABLE ... MERGE PARTITIONS requires the
partition bounds to be adjacent."),
parser_errposition(pstate, datum->location));

I am not sure last sentence "merge three monthly partitions into one
quarter partition:"
is correct.
buildExpressionExecutionStates seems not needed, same reason as
mentioned before,
code pattern aligned with ATRewriteTable.
while at it, also did some minor changes.
