Well, it seems clear that somehow the vacuum deleted a toast tuple that
the other statement was about to fetch, but it's not clear how this
could be.  The pg_statistic fetch must have come from the planner, which
should always be called with a transaction snapshot established, and
that ought to protect it against vacuum deleting anything that could be
visible to SnapshotNow.  Weird.

[ pokes around for a bit ... ]  Hmm, can you say how the failing query
was submitted, exactly?  I'm wondering if it came in via simple Query
(PQexec) or extended-query protocol (anything with parameters).
