I don't think it was thrown during the critical section - we'd otherwise
see the ERROR about unexpected lock status converted to a PANIC (and the
"cannot abort transaction, already committed" is a PANIC itself). I
suspect it's more likely that we corrupt the xact.c status somewhere -
but it's hard to say without knowing more about the workload.
