Thanks for debugging!

Yes, discardAvailableResults() can discard PGRES_PIPELINE_SYNC,
but do you mean that's the root cause of the assertion failure
Nagata-san reported?
Since that failure can occur even in older branches, I was thinking
that newer code
like discardAvailableResults() in master isn't the root cause...
