So, the reason this wasn't failing for me is that I had default TOAST
compression lz4, and the test case wasn't reaching size for being made
external, as opposed to pglz. I changed the test to specify pglz
compression explicitly. I also added some dropped columns and one more
toast column. (On my machine, this expanded test fails for several
rows, not just one, when the fix is deactivated.) I fear the buildfarm
may end up showing other failures, but there's no way to know other than
to try.
Thanks, Satya, for reporting the bug.
