And pushed. I noticed that while the relcache.c fix mitigates the error
pretty well in 9.3 and up, in the older branches you still end up with
a PANIC due to error stack overflow. This may indicate that there's
some patch we'd have been better off back-porting. However, with the
Portal changes in place the test cases work in all branches, so I'm
not excited enough to pursue the point further myself.
