If it is a internal error, call internal_error().

From a practicality viewpoint, I refuse to do that when we know of
multiple situations which trigger these problems.  I still get them
reported to me every couple of weeks.
Sorry I don't see the problem. If it is an internal error then it should be reported as such. That way the user can do things like provide us with a core dump.
