Hmm.  I am not feeling especially comfortable about this: it's not clear
that there's anything preventing a suspended portal from containing a
dangerous reference.  However, a quick trial did not show that it was
possible to break it --- in the cases I tried, we detected that a cached
plan was no longer valid, tried to rebuild it, and noticed the missing
object at that point.  So maybe it's OK.

On reflection I think that the tracking of activeSubid in my patch is
probably overkill if we're attacking it this way.  We can just have
AtSubAbort_Portals fail any ACTIVE portal regardless of subxact level,
which is pretty analogous to what AtAbort_Portals has done for a long
time.

Let me work on this and see if I can get to a simpler patch.

                        regards, tom lane
