That is not a reference to pg_class, so you should not make reloidattr
reference it.
The point of reloidattr is that during a relation cache clear event,
it allows catcache to find all catcache rows that are related to that
relation cache entry (eg, pg_attribute, pg_trigger, etc). So far
there's not been need for more than one such attribute per tuple.
