It appears that libxml2 doesn't bother to set the "children" field of an XML_NAMESPACE_DECL node to null; that field just contains garbage. In v10 and v11, this can result in a crash in XMLTABLE(). The rewrite done in commit 251cf2e27 fixed this, somewhat accidentally, in v12. We're not going to back-patch 251cf2e27, however. The case apparently doesn't have wide use, so rather than risk introducing other problems, just add a safety check to throw an error. Even though no bug manifests in v12/HEAD, add the relevant test case there too, to prevent future regressions. Chapman Flack (per private report)
