I have reproduced this error against the current master:
```
CREATE TABLESPACE ts1 LOCATION '/workspace/tablespaces/pg_bug_ts1';
CREATE DATABASE db1 TABLESPACE ts1;
DELETE FROM pg_tablespace WHERE spcname = 'ts1';
SELECT * FROM pg_get_database_ddl('db1'::regdatabase);
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.
```
Backend logs show:
```
[1] LOG: client backend (PID 15420) was terminated by signal 11: Segmentation fault
[1] DETAIL: Failed process was running: SELECT * FROM pg_get_database_ddl('db1'::regdatabase);
[1] LOG: terminating any other active server processes
```
After applying the patch:
```
SELECT * FROM pg_get_database_ddl('db1'::regdatabase);
ERROR: tablespace with OID 16393 does not exist
HINT: To recover, try ALTER DATABASE ... SET TABLESPACE ... to a valid tablespace.
```
and backend logs show:
```
[56] ERROR: tablespace with OID 16393 does not exist
[56] HINT: To recover, try ALTER DATABASE ... SET TABLESPACE ... to a valid tablespace.
[56] STATEMENT: SELECT * FROM pg_get_database_ddl('db1'::regdatabase);
```
All tests pass.
The only note I'd have on the code change is that there is no accompanying test. It seems like a TAP test would be reasonable, but I am quite new and will defer to whether you think that's the right call or even necessary.
