runtime error copying oids field

Hi,
In our testPgRegressTrigger test log, I saw the following (this was for a
relatively old version of PG):

197859 [ts-1]
../../../../../../src/postgres/src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c:1062:22:
runtime error: null pointer passed as argument 2, which is declared to
never be null

This was the line runtime error was raised:

memcpy(part_oids, partdesc->oids, sizeof(Oid) * nparts);

From RelationBuildPartitionDesc we can see that:

if (nparts > 0)
{
PartitionBoundInfo boundinfo;
int *mapping;
int next_index = 0;

result->oids = (Oid *) palloc0(nparts * sizeof(Oid));

The cause was oids field was not assigned due to nparts being 0.
This is verified by additional logging added just prior to the memcpy call.

I want to get the community's opinion on whether a null check should be
added prior to the memcpy() call.

Cheers
