By running the queued_alters query multiple times in a loop:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20181231221734.GB25379%40telsasoft.com

I'm able to trigger dsa "ERROR"s with that query on a newly initdb cluster with
only that table.  But I think some servers are more likely to hit it than
others.

I've only tripped on 15585 twice, and only while trying to trigger other DSA
bugs (the working hypothesis is that bug is 2ndary issue which happens after
hitting some other bug).  And not consistently or quickly.
