FWIW, I've been puzzled by your report here, and also run similar
workloads on HEAD with an aggressive autovacuum setup to stress more
the code paths you have mentioned in your backtraces. That could be a
lack of luck because of a lack of friction with several concurrent
actions required, of course, but I've not been able to see your
problem. :/
