Tom Lane dbca84f04e In rebuild_relation(), don't access an already-closed relcache entry.
This reliably fails with -DRELCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE, as reported by
Andrew Dunstan, and could sometimes fail in normal operation, resulting
in a wrong persistence value being used for the transient table.
It's not immediately clear to me what effects that might have beyond
the risk of a crash while accessing OldHeap->rd_rel->relpersistence,
but it's probably not good.

Bug introduced by commit f41872d0c, and made substantially worse by
commit 85b506bbf, which added a second such access significantly
later than the heap_close.  I doubt the first reference could fail
in a production scenario, but the second one definitely could.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
