If I'm reading the code correctly, it's the definition of
ArrayGetNItems*Safe*. ArrayGetNItems() calls that function with a NULL
escontext and the NULL turns ereturn() into ereport(). That doesn't
seem to be changed by the commit.

Of course teaching Coverity not to issue the false warnings would be
another actual issue that we should do, maybe.
