I wonder if we're staring at some race condition in visibility map where a
previous vacuum inadvertently skips a page because the visibility map bit
is set, thus leaving behind an unfrozen multixid. The page then again
becomes !all_visible and the next vacuum then complains about the unfrozen
multixid.
