Are you *certain* the active role is really a superuser?  I'd say that
that message is sufficient proof that it isn't.

Granting privileges to a superuser is 100% pointless...

I wonder whether you are supposing that the superuser property can be
inherited by some other role via role membership grant.  It doesn't work
that way.  You must actually be cover_super here to be superuser.
