If you define the last builtin oid as the highest oid in existence after
initdb then it has always been whatever the load of pg_description at then
end leaves you with.

Perhaps you could move the CREATE TRIGGER pg_sync_pg_pwd (or something
else) to the very end to get a more predictable starting point.
