table_open() should error out when it is going to return an invalid
Relation*, and RelationGetDescr(rel) is "rel->rd_att". So the
RelationGetDescr() cannot get a segv even if the table does not exist.
# I modified contrib/passwordcheck that way and saw RelationGetDescr()

I guess the segv comes from another place, or something else has
broken memory until there. but anyway more information is needed for
people to diagnose your situation more closely.
