I did inquire about getting my hands on the schema or a shell to a test
instance of the database for further analysis, but it's difficult as the
system is highly guarded by our customer. I'm afraid I won't be able to
contribute more info until then.

That was just my superficial impression after looking at recipe and
backtrace of #15727 (IIRC an error occures during error handling leading
to the same panic). I communicated to the customer that it's not clear
to me whether they are actually related but somehow I worded the bug
report with more prejudice than I intended, probably out of hope for a
quick backport fix. Your not seeing it squashed that though :-)
