IOW, it is a bug discovered during the 9.2 release that was deemed improper
to back-patch.
However, the bug applies to behavior that should only happen by mistake; you
should not have a trigger that updates the row you are currently deleting.
But since the behavior results is working code breaking it in a released
branch is frowned upon.
