Hmm, the new test introduced by your patch fails in early branches (at
least 9.4): the transaction is decoded like this:
! data
! -----------------------------------------------------
BEGIN
table public.tr_sub_ddl: INSERT: data[integer]:42
+ table public.pg_temp_16445: INSERT: data[bigint]:42
table public.tr_sub_ddl: INSERT: data[bigint]:43
COMMIT
! (5 rows)
note the additional pg_temp_XYZ row in the middle. This is caused by
the rewrite in ALTER TABLE. Peter E fixed that in Pg11 in commit
325f2ec55; I don't think there's much to do in the backbranches other
than hide the pesky record to avoid it breaking the test.
