This is surely a completely different issue --- there are not,
one hopes, any extended-stats OIDs embedded in views or other
query trees.

I concur with Tomas' suspicion that this must be a race condition
during DROP STATISTICS.  If we're going to allow people to do that
separately from dropping the table(s), there has to be some kind of
locking around it, and it sounds like there's not :-(
