Thanks for the report!  setrefs.c is supposed to remove
AlternativeSubPlan nodes from the plan, but it's failing to do so
here.  Digging, the un-cleaned-up AlternativeSubPlan is inside the
exec_pruning_steps of an Append node's part_prune_info, and I see
that setrefs is totally unaware that those expressions might need
processing.  I think it ought to be applying fix_scan_expr to them,
as per the attached.  There are a bunch of tidying-up things that
fix_scan_expr does, so I suspect that there may be more bug symptoms
reachable from this oversight.  Some of the missed processing may be
redundant --- for example it's likely that
record_plan_function_dependency is duplicative because functions used
here would also be used elsewhere in the query.  But it's hard to
believe it all is.
