I'm looking at some 7.3.4 vacuum output, and at first glance it does not
appear that vacuum is reclaiming any dead tuple space if there is even a
single open transaction, even if the open transaction does not in any way
reference the table being vacuumed.  Is that correct?  Is the behavior
different in later versions?
