Yeah.

If we call ReleaseSysCache before ereport(), we need to add local
variables as you have done, which increases the lines of code. Since
ereport will never return, ReleaseSysCache() is not needed at all. But
leaving it there helps justifying fetching the attributes in the
ereport call. FWIW, it makes the code future proof, in a very rare
case if someone makes ereport conditional.
