+   basic_archive_context = data->context;
+   Assert(CurrentMemoryContext != basic_archive_context);

So this is what it means to document that we are not in the memory
context we are freeing here.  That seems good enough to me in this
context.  Tracking if one of CurrentMemoryContext's parents is the
memory context that would be deleted would be another thing, but this
does not apply here.

I may tweak a bit the comments, but nothing more.  And I don't think I
have more to add.  Andres, do you have anything you would like to
mention?
