I believe that creates an unnamed connection referencing a foreign
server definition named "internal".

This is going to find that "internal" is not the name of any known
dblink connection (since the one that does exist is unnamed). So it
creates a transient connection of its own using "internal" as a
connection string, ie a fresh reference to the foreign server. For the
duration of this command, there are two connections to the remote
database.

And that closes the unnamed connection.

This is going to fail because there is no dblink connection named
"internal". Unlike dblink_exec, there is no support for making a
transient connection for just the duration of the function call,
since it wouldn't be sensible --- the connection has to persist
so you can get the result back.
Use the two-parameter form of dblink_connect() so you can make a
named connection.

Consulting the commit logs, I see that that was a bug we fixed
as of 9.1.

Async dblink functions require a named connection, and therefore should
use DBLINK_GET_NAMED_CONN rather than DBLINK_GET_CONN.
Problem found by Peter Eisentraut and patch by Fujii Masao.
