And cfbot immediately showed that this assertion in
OldSerXidSetActiveSerXmin() could fail in the isolation tests:

    Assert(!TransactionIdIsValid(oldSerXidControl->tailXid)
           || TransactionIdFollows(xid, oldSerXidControl->tailXid));

Not sure how that ever worked or if I screwed something up while
rebasing, but the quick (and possibly wrong?) solution I found was to
exclude hypothetical SERIALIABLEXACTs when scanning for the new oldest
xid:

@@ -3181,6 +3322,7 @@ SetNewSxactGlobalXmin(void)
        for (sxact = FirstPredXact(); sxact != NULL; sxact =
NextPredXact(sxact))
        {
                if (!SxactIsRolledBack(sxact)
+                       && !SxactIsHypothetical(sxact)
                        && !SxactIsCommitted(sxact)
                        && sxact != OldCommittedSxact)

Here's a version like that in the meantime so that the CI passes.  The
real solution might be to give them their own xid (right now they
"borrow" one, see PreCommit_CheckForSerializationFailure()... now that
I think about it, that must be wrong), when I have more time for this
project.
