I was going to report a similar error that arises in a different
situation:

client 1:

CREATE TABLE a (b int);
BEGIN;
DROP TABLE a;
-- wait

client 2:

SELECT * FROM a;

client 1:

COMMIT;

Now, client 2 will receive "RelationClearRelation: relation 25172
deleted while still in use", rather than "Relation "a" does not
exist", as you might expect. Not sure if it's the same bug, or just a
different problem...

Cheers,

Neil
