Uh ... you need to guard against integer overflow in this calculation.
Perhaps leave the current initialization alone, and then after the
Min-reduction steps add
/* curious coding to ensure the multiplication can't overflow */
if ((BlockNumber) (maxtuples / LAZY_ALLOC_TUPLES) > relblocks)
maxtuples = relblocks * LAZY_ALLOC_TUPLES;
which is demonstrably overflow-proof once maxtuples has been clamped to
less than INT_MAX.
