pg_class.relchecks reports the number of CHECK constraints in a table, and is stored within a smallint. It was possible to define a table that could overflow the counter when specifying more than 32k constraints (new table or adding a constraint). This would cause the table to become undroppable, as this counter should never be negative when dropping these constraints.
