I'm beginning to think we're going to have to give up on that
no-pallocs-in-critical-sections Assert. It was useful to catch
unnecessarily-dangerous allocations in mainline cases, but getting rid
of every last corner-case palloc is looking to be, if not impossible,
at least a lot more trouble than it is worth.
