autovacuum crash due to null pointer

There's a fairly interesting crash here:
http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=jaguar&dt=2008-07-16%2003:00:02
The buildfarm was nice enough to provide a stack trace at the bottom of
the page, which shows clearly that autovac tried to pfree a null
pointer.

What I think happened was that the table that was selected to be
autovacuumed got dropped during the setup steps, leading get_rel_name()
to return NULL at line 2167.  vacuum() itself would have fallen out
silently ...  however, had it errored out, the attempts at error
reporting in the PG_CATCH block would have crashed.

I see that we already noticed and fixed this type of problem in
autovac_report_activity(), but do_autovacuum() didn't get the word.
Is there anyplace else in there with the same issue?  For that matter,
why is autovac_report_activity repeating the lookups already done
at the outer level?

One other point is that the postmaster log just says

TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(pointer != ((void *)0))", File: "mcxt.c", Line: 580)
[487d6715.3a87:2] LOG:  server process (PID 16885) was terminated by signal 6: Aborted

Could we get that to say "autovacuum worker" instead of "server"?
