Given the described behavior, I'd bet a lot that it means somebody
missed a case in GetCommandLogLevel(). Which makes it annoying, but
not especially scary except for the fact that the failure is causing
it to abort the user query too soon.
FWIW, the phrase "unknown node" does not appear in the community Postgres
sources, either now or back in 8.2; it would violate our message style
guidelines to write it like that. So this is coming from some
Greenplum-added code, and you definitely have to talk to them about it.
