I think the errhint() is excessive in this context. It makes sense if you are
executing ALTER DATABASE, for example. I suggest a message like

  database \"%s\" is an invalid database

Regarding the test case suggested by Japin Li, I don't think it is worth because
it is a transient state (unless something bad happened and pg_database contains
a dangling row.)
