well, the problem in rebuild_relation() seems pretty blatant:
/* Close relcache entry, but keep lock until transaction commit */
heap_close(OldHeap, NoLock);
/* Create the transient table that will receive the re-ordered data */
OIDNewHeap = make_new_heap(tableOid, tableSpace,
OldHeap->rd_rel->relpersistence,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AccessExclusiveLock);
There are two such references after the heap_close. I don't know that
those are the only bugs, but this reference is certainly the proximate
cause of the crash I'm seeing.
Will push a fix in a little bit.
