I don't think the problem described here has anything to do with
that.  It looks to me like there is an explicit LOCK TABLE
statement being executed for a mode which conflicts with a normal
vacuum or analyze, even without truncation.  The cited change
*avoids* this sort of cancellation for the truncation phase, so it
is not getting that far.
