mantid just showed a failure that looks like the same thing, at
least it's also in 023_pitr_prepared_xact.pl:

https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=mantid&dt=2021-05-03%2013%3A07%3A06

The assertion line number is rather different though:

TRAP: FailedAssertion("TransactionIdPrecedesOrEquals(TransactionXmin, RecentXmin)", File: "procarray.c", Line: 2094,
PID:1163004) 

and interestingly, this happened in a parallel worker:
