I don't think the subtransaction subcommit will do the check. Unless I'm
missing something about the code, a CommitTransaction would but a
CommitSubTransaction won't, which actually makes sense given that we're
mapping savepoints on to it, and I don't think we are allowed to check at
savepoint release time.
I tried a few small ariations on the given example, all of which fail on
my 8.2.4 machine, including the following, but maybe I've missed the
scenario you're envisioning:
begin; savepoint i1; insert ... ; release i1; savepoint u1; update ...;
release u1; commit;
begin; savepoint i1; insert ... ; release i1; savepoint u1; update ...;
commit;
begin; savepoint a1; savepoint a2; insert ...; release a2; update ...;
commit;
begin; savepoint a1; savepoint a2; insert ...; release a2;
savepoint a3; update ...; commit;
