I have a theory about the failures that occur while creating tables.
If a relcache flush were to occur due to SI buffer overrun between
creation of the new rel's relcache entry by RelationBuildLocalRelation
and completion of the command, then you'd see an error exactly like the
above, because the relcache would try to rebuild the cache entry by
reading the pg_class and pg_attribute rows for the relation. Which
would possibly not exist yet, and even if they did exist they'd be
invisible under SnapshotNow rules.
However this bug is of long standing, and it doesn't seem all that
probable as an explanation for your difficulties. It would be worth
running the tests with log_min_messages set to DEBUG4 (along with the
verbosity setting, please) and see if you observe "cache state reset"
log entries just before the failures.
In any case this would not explain failures during DROP TABLE, so
there's another issue to look for.
