Description:        VACUUM FULL fails with "out of memory" error
Details:

Hello!

Such a thing happens: when I make an attempt to vacuum full a table it waits
some minutes and then throws an error:

ERROR:  out of memory
DETAIL:  Failed on request of size 288.

It doesn't matter I set maintenance_work_mem to 16MB, 200MB or 1GB.

This table is bad enough: it has a size of 154G but "explain select *" says
there are only 524597 rows (and that value seems to be near to true). It is
not wide: integer, integer, character varying(10), integer, character
varying(3), date, integer.

Here's the part of serverlog:
