Indeed, reproduced here.

Yes, the loop in GetForeignKeyActionTriggers() needs this:
+ /* Only ever look at "action" triggers on the PK side. */
+ if (RI_FKey_trigger_type(trgform->tgfoid) != RI_TRIGGER_PK)
+ continue;
Likewise, GetForeignKeyActionTriggers() needs this:
+ /* Only ever look at "check" triggers on the FK side. */
+ if (RI_FKey_trigger_type(trgform->tgfoid) != RI_TRIGGER_FK)
+ continue;
We evidently missed this in f4566345cf40b0.

While neither of these functions are called in hot paths, I am
inclined to keep the early-exit bit in non-assert builds.
Attached a patch.
