I think that example is bogus. Let's forget that one, and look at the
attached script.
The underlying problem is that when we do GetOverrideSearchPath() in
CreateCachedPlan, the memorized search path doesn't include pg_temp, if
the temp namespace wasn't initialized for the backend yet. When we later
need to revalidate the plan, pg_temp still isn't searched, even if it
now exists.
