In the attached patch (snippet below), I'm seeing something strange with
args->in.r.atts[].

Did you try comparing the apparent values of "args" before and after
entering PG_TRY?

Yeah, see below. FWIW, when I did that just now I stepped through at the instruction level, and things went belly up when I stepped into the first instruction of the for (first instruction after PG_TRY was done).

I saw the comment on PG_TRY about marking things as volatile, but my
understanding from the comment is I shouldn't even need to do that,
since these variables aren't being modified.

Not sure, but if you do need to mark them volatile to prevent
misoptimization in the PG_TRY, this is not how to do it:

volatile TupleDesc      desc = slot->tts_tupleDescriptor;
volatile CallbackState *myState = (CallbackState *) self;
volatile PLyTypeInfo *args = myState->args;

Correct coding would be

    volatile TupleDesc  desc = slot->tts_tupleDescriptor;
    CallbackState * volatile myState = (CallbackState *) self;
    PLyTypeInfo * volatile args = myState->args;

because what needs to be marked volatile is the pointer variable,
not what it points at.  I'm a bit surprised you're not getting
"cast away volatile" warnings from the code as you have it.

Unfortunately, that didn't make a difference. Amit's suggestion of isolating the single statement in a PG_TRY() didn't work either, but assigning args->in.r.atts[i] to a pointer did. The volatile didn't make a difference in this case, which if the PG_TRY() comments are to be believed is what I'd expect. Though, it was also OK with value not being volatile, which AFAIK isn't safe, so...

        for (i = 0; i < desc->natts; i++)
        {
                PyObject   *value = NULL;
                PLyDatumToOb * volatile atts = &args->in.r.atts[i];

...

                if (slot->tts_isnull[i] || atts->func == NULL)
                {
                        Py_INCREF(Py_None);
                        value = Py_None;
                }
                else
                {
                        PG_TRY();
                        {
                                value = (atts->func) (atts, 
slot->tts_values[i]);
                        }
                        PG_CATCH();
                        {
                                Py_XDECREF(value);
                                MemoryContextSwitchTo(oldcontext);

                                PG_RE_THROW();
