The correct test for whether a redirection tuple is removable is whether tuple's xid < RecentGlobalXmin, not OldestXmin; the previous coding failed to protect index searches being done in concurrent transactions that have no XID. This mirrors the recent fix in btree's page recycling logic made in commit d3abbbebe52eb1e59e621c880ad57df9d40d13f2. Also, WAL-log the newest XID of any removed redirection tuple on an index page, and apply ResolveRecoveryConflictWithSnapshot during InHotStandby WAL replay. This protects against concurrent Hot Standby transactions possibly needing to see the redirection tuple(s). Per my query of 2012-03-12 and subsequent discussion.
