<para>
Fix misbehavior of concurrent-update rechecks with CTE references
appearing in subplans (Tom Lane)
</para>
<para>
If a CTE (<literal>WITH</literal> clause reference) is used in an
InitPlan or SubPlan, and the query requires a recheck due to trying
to update or lock a concurrently-updated row, incorrect results could
be obtained.

<para>
Repair <application>pg_upgrade</application>'s failure to
preserve <structfield>relfrozenxid</structfield> for materialized
views (Tom Lane, Andres Freund)
</para>
<para>
This oversight could lead to data corruption in materialized views
after an upgrade, manifesting as <quote>could not access status of
transaction</quote> or <quote>found xmin from before
relfrozenxid</quote> errors. The problem would be more likely to
occur in seldom-refreshed materialized views, or ones that were
maintained only with <command>REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW
CONCURRENTLY</command>.
</para>
<para>
If such corruption is observed, it can be repaired by refreshing the
materialized view (without <literal>CONCURRENTLY</literal>).

<para>
Fix <application>pg_dump</application>'s mishandling
of <literal>STATISTICS</literal> objects (Tom Lane)
</para>
<para>
An extended statistics object's schema was mislabeled in the dump's
table of contents, possibly leading to the wrong results in a
schema-selective restore. Its ownership was not correctly restored,
either. Also, change the logic so that statistics objects are
dumped/restored, or not, as independent objects rather than tying
them to the dump/restore decision for the table they are on. The
original definition could not scale to the planned future extension to
cross-table statistics.

<para>
Fix incorrect reporting of PL/Python function names in
error <literal>CONTEXT</literal> stacks (Tom Lane)
</para>
<para>
An error occurring within a nested PL/Python function call (that is,
one reached via a SPI query from another PL/Python function) would
result in a stack trace showing the inner function's name twice,
rather than the expected results. Also, an error in a nested
PL/Python <literal>DO</literal> block could result in a null pointer
dereference crash on some platforms.
