I'm sorry, but our policy is that crossposts are not allowed.  I think
this policy is bad, precisely because it prevents legitimate cases like
this one; but it is what it is.

I think we should change the policy, not back to allow indiscriminate
cross-posting, but to allow some limited form of it.  For example I
think pg-bugs+pg-hackers and pg-docs+pg-hackers should be allowed
combinations.  Just saying.
