I have not gone back to look at the code, but are you worried about the
fact that it doesn't consider replacing xmax with FrozenTransactionId?
Surely we could do that if we wanted.  It just never seemed necessary
before --- but if vacuum is to be allowed to punt repeatedly on the same
page, maybe we do need to cover the case.
