I have found a problem in indexing.c. In CatalogIndexFetchTuple(),
there is a particulary weird do..while loop, and in trying to clean it
up as part of the megapatch, I broke it and thought I had it fixed.
It appears it may still be broken. The ReleaseBuffer(buffer) call could
happen even if no valid tuple is returned because buffer has a random
value.
I am running a test now, and will post the fix as soon as I am sure it
works.
