This is because of disconnect_database called twice in the error flow:
+       PQclear(res);
+
+       disconnect_database(conn, false);
+
+       if (max_repslots < num_dbs)
+       {
+               pg_log_error("subscriber requires %d replication
slots, but only %d remain",
+                                        num_dbs, max_repslots);
+               pg_log_error_hint("Consider increasing
max_replication_slots to at least %d.",
+                                                 num_dbs);
+               disconnect_database(conn, true);
+       }
+
+       if (max_lrworkers < num_dbs)
+       {
+               pg_log_error("subscriber requires %d logical
replication workers, but only %d remain",
+                                        num_dbs, max_lrworkers);
+               pg_log_error_hint("Consider increasing
max_logical_replication_workers to at least %d.",
+                                                 num_dbs);
+               disconnect_database(conn, true);
+       }

This is handled in the attached patch set. Apart from this there are a
couple of test failures which will be handled in the upcoming version.
