When issuing an update statement in a transaction with ~30800 levels of

It seems easy enough to throw a check_stack_depth() in there - survives
make check here.
I wonder if it would work to deal with the problem non-recursively
instead. We don't impose subxact depth restrictions elsewhere, why
start now?
It looks trivial enough, but whats the point?
To support more than <insert abitrary limit here> subtransactions,
obviously.
