Hmm ... at least one of the paths through internal_get_result_type
is intentionally blessing the result tupdesc:

            if (tupdesc->tdtypeid == RECORDOID &&
                tupdesc->tdtypmod < 0)
                assign_record_type_typmod(tupdesc);

but it's not clear if they all do, and the comments certainly
aren't promising it.

I'd be in favor of making this a documented API promise,
but it isn't that right now.
