I'm just going to remove the test. This is not very future-proof and
an ugly pattern if it gets copied to other places. We need to work on
a more sensible way for ALTER TABLE to report what it did, but a
solution based on what GUCs the build-farm happens to set doesn't seem
like it's justified for the narrowness of the case we're testing here.
Whether or not we allow this case to work without a rewrite is in
some sense arbitrary. There's no real reason it can't be done; rather,
we're just exercising restraint to minimize the risk of future bugs.
So I don't want to go to great lengths to test it.
