Yeah, as you probably saw in the other thread, we later realized that
2ce64ca created an additional pathway for ScanPgRelation to recurse;
a pathway that's evidently easier to hit than the pre-existing ones.
I note that both of your stack traces display ScanPgRelation recursion,
so I'm feeling pretty confident that what you're seeing is the same
thing.
But, as Andres says, it'd be great if you could confirm whether the
draft patches fix it for you.
