Attached.
Note that part 1) referenced in the commit message is actually
problematic in all branches. I think we actually should backpatch that
part all the way, because if we ever hit that case the consequences of
the current coding will be rather hard to analyze. If others think so as
well, I'm going to split the commit into two parts, so commit messages
for < 9.4 won't reference logical decoding. Since there hasn't been a
report of that error for a long while (~8.1 era), I can also live with
not backpatching further than 9.4.
