My thoughts were trending in that direction too. It's starting
to sound like we aren't going to be able to make a fix that
we'd be willing to risk back-patching, even if it were completely
compatible at the user level.
Still, the idea that txid_status() isn't trustworthy is rather
scary. I wonder whether there is a failure mode here that's
exhibitable without using that.
