It looks like CheckTargetForConflictsIn is making the assumption that
the backend-local lock table is accurate, which was probably even true
at the time it was written. Unfortunately, it hasn't been for a while,
and the new changes for tuple versions make it more likely that this
will actually come up.
The solution is only slightly more complicated than just removing the
assertion. Unless Kevin beats me to it, I'll put together a patch later
tonight or tomorrow. (I'm at the airport right now.)
