It's the bug one.  Ashutosh pinged me off-list and he's working on it.
Somehow I thought it was OK for the planner to have pointers into the
relcache, but apparently we don't keep the relations open throughout
planning, only locked. So set_relation_partition_info and
find_partition_scheme needs to grow code to copy stuff instead of just
pointing to it.
