If I create a large table with "CREATE TABLE ... AS SELECT ... from generate_series(1,3e7)" with no explicit transactions, then once it is done I wait for autovac to kick in, then when I try to build an index on that table (or drop the table) the autovac doesn't go away on its own.
Bisects down to:

snapshot scalability: Move PGXACT->vacuumFlags to ProcGlobal->vacuumFlags.
Which makes sense given the parts of the code this touches, although I don't understand exactly what the problem is. The problem persists in HEAD (77c7267c37).
Cheers,
