Yeah, looks better.  I think the error message should be a normal elog()
cache failure, though ... at least in the COMMENT case, the obj-does-not-
exist message is supposed to be thrown by get_object_address(), before
check_object_ownership is called.

As a matter of style, I would get rid of the 'conoid' variable and just
use address.objectId where needed.
