It's crashing because it's trying to acquire the content_lock on a
local buffer, which of course doesn't have one. This appears to have
been broken in 8fc23a9e. Oddly, HEAD does not have the problem because
it looks like

if ((mode == RBM_ZERO_AND_LOCK || mode == RBM_ZERO_AND_CLEANUP_LOCK) &&
!isLocalBuf)
{
LWLockAcquire(bufHdr->content_lock, LW_EXCLUSIVE);
}

but the back branches are missing the isLocalBuf bit.
