Out-of-bounds access (ARRAY_VS_SINGLETON) (src/backend/access/nbtree/nbtdedup.c)

Hi,

Per Coverity.

ARRAY vs SINGLETON

If variable htids is accessed like array, but is a simple pointer, can be
"This might corrupt or misinterpret adjacent memory locations."

at line 723:
/* Form standard non-pivot tuple */
itup->t_info &= ~INDEX_ALT_TID_MASK;
htids = &itup->t_tid;

1. Here htids is a SINGLETON?

So:

At line 723:
htids[ui++] = *BTreeTupleGetPostingN(origtuple, i);

2. htids is accessed how ARRAY?

And is acessed at positions 0 and 1, according (nhtids == 1):
Assert(ui == nhtids);

The htids[1] are destroying something at this memory position.
