This seems like a really ugly API.  What's so hard about expecting the
caller to construct a valid GrantStmt?

(I get the impression from a quick scan of the code that the comment
is a long way from telling the truth about what's really happening,
either.)

If these are supposed to mean "AlterConversionOwner_internal", please
spell them that way.  Sitting beside "AlterConversionOwner_oid", it
sure looks like the "int" is meant to be read as "integer".
