Say what? That's got to be a symptom of a bug somewhere. Maybe
pg_operator needs some CommandCounterIncrement calls so that the
tuples it inserts become visible earlier? What are you seeing exactly?

For that matter, SearchSelfReferences looks like one giant kluge to me.
Who added this, and why, and what's the logic? (Undocumented kluges
are very high on my hate list.)
