Ah. I wanted to implement proper handling of case when tuple in 
update-chain is updated by "too old" xaction (part of chain should
be deleted) but ok - it's not bug, just unimplemented feature.

(BTW, Mark, I have to update lock.sgml)

Hiroshi, please run your test. You'll get NOTICEs instead of ERRORs.
Unfortunately, I can't get your test finished locally - I always
get core and gdb says too little:

??? memmove shouldn't call strcpy. Something is broken,
but maybe due to FreeBSD 3.0 on my box... I'll run test
on 2.2.6 soon.
