This was a bit indirect.
I've checked the core file of v3's failure core and printed the entry
to get more confidence. Sorry for inappropriate measure to verify the solution.
$1 = {relid = 16388, schema_sent = false, streamed_txns = 0x0, replicate_valid = false, pubactions = {pubinsert =
false,pubupdate = false, pubdelete = false, pubtruncate = false}, publish_as_relid = 16388,
map = 0x7f7f7f7f7f7f7f7f}
Yes, the process tried to free garbage.
Now, we are convinced that we have addressed the problem. That's it !
