AFAICT during Update also, it doesn't contain useful. The only chance it
would have contain something useful is when it goes for EvalPlanQual and
then again comes to check for constraints. However these attributes get
filled in heap_update much later.
So now should the fix be that it returns an error for system column
reference except for OID case?
