Thanks for the patch. I am not getting any crash but \d is not showing
any temp table if we drop temp schema and create again temp table.
postgres=# create temporary table test1 (a int);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# \d
List of relations
Schema | Name | Type | Owner
-----------+-------+-------+----------
pg_temp_3 | test1 | table | mahendra
(1 row)
postgres=# drop schema pg_temp_3 cascade ;
NOTICE: drop cascades to table test1
DROP SCHEMA
postgres=# \d
Did not find any relations.
postgres=# create temporary table test1 (a int);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# \d
Did not find any relations.
postgres=#
Thanks and Regards
