FYI, I've made some progress on characterizing the cause of this bug,
as per comments at the upstream bug report:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1115587&group_id=10894&atid=110894
There are actually two distinct bugs involved, and I don't yet have a
patch for the case depesz illustrates.
