This is a bit hard to believe, and your log extract certainly doesn't
provide any evidence to support the statement.  Could we see a complete
self-contained test case?

That only suggests a new incoming connection, which seems probably
unrelated.  However, if that new connection is what's going to examine
pg_attribute, maybe the issue is that it's looking before the ALTER has
committed?
