The problem is that the database hash is cleared of databases that no
longer exist, and the database list is constructed by scanning
pg_database. Since no entry exist for the database we use for shared
tables (InvalidOid), the hash table is dropped. The attached patch
fixes this.

I'm not sure if this is fixed by the patch; can you verify, or provide a
more specific description of the problem?
