I'd say it's not!
Just looking at the stacktrace, I'm thinking that the following commit
may have had a bearing on this problem, by causing pgstat to be
shutdown earlier:
commit fb2c5028e63589c01fbdf8b031be824766dc7a68
Author: Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
Date: Fri Aug 6 10:05:57 2021 -0700
pgstat: Schedule per-backend pgstat shutdown via before_shmem_exit().
Can you see if the problem can be reproduced prior to this commit?
