The SPLIT/MERGE PARTITION(S) commands for creating partitions reuse the 
existing code of CREATE TABLE .. LIKE ... command. A new partition was 
created with the name "merge-16385-26BCB0-tmp" (since there was an old 
partition with the same name). The constraint 
"merge-16385-26BCB0-tmp_i_not_null" was created too together with the 
partition. Subsequently, the table was renamed, but the constraint was not.
Now a new partition is immediately created with the correct name (the 
old partition is renamed).

Just in case, I am attaching a small fix v9_fix.diff for situation [1].
