Turns out that this is related to concurrent growth of the table while
the summarization process is scanning -- so new pages have appeared at
the end of the table after the end point has been determined.  It would
be a pain to determine number of blocks for each range, so I'm looking
for a simple way to fix it without imposing so much overhead.
