I don't think that's true. In that case the state should have been idle
in transaction, no?

I think there's a pgstat_report_xact_timestamp(0) missing from
xact.c:PrepareTransaction(). There's no point in reporting a prepared
xact's starttime in a backend that's not associated with it anymore.

Maxim, are you using prepared transactions?
