Hmm. Without the DROP TABLE, the ATTACH would fail:
regression=# ALTER TABLE t ATTACH PARTITION t1 FOR VALUES IN (1);
ERROR: cannot attach inheritance parent as partition
I observe that in the case given, t1 still has pg_class.relhassubclass
true after the ATTACH PARTITION. Maybe it'd be wise to force that
false after verifying there are no subclasses? (I tried fixing it
manually, and that prevents the assertion crash.)
