Hmm. So those functions have not compiled since 48354581a of 2016-04-10, and nobody's noticed. Moreover, whatever use-case they do have would be reduced a good deal by taking a buffer lock (which might not be available, or our own process might hold it already). I'd vote for just removing them... regards, tom lane
