Wow, that's pretty broken. I'll dig into it tomorrow.

Yeah, seems to fail the same way in all active branches ...

If you just need a work-around-it-right-now solution, I'd suggest
introducing an "OFFSET 0" optimization fence into one or another of the
levels of view below the outer joins. I've not experimented but I think
that ought to fix it, at some possibly-annoying cost in query
optimization. Hopefully I'll have another answer tomorrow.
