So, pg_resetwal logic with the oldest XID assignment is causing some
problem here.  This open item is opened for some time now and it is
idle for a couple of weeks.  It looks that we have some solution
drafted, to be able to move forward, with the following things (no
patches yet): 
- More robustness safety checks in procarray.c.
- A rework of oldestXid in pg_resetwal.

Is there somebody working on that?
