Hmm, but if I run this test without the code change in 0002, the test
also passes (to wit: the plan still has two hash joins), so I understand
that either you're testing something that's not changed by the patch,
or the test case itself isn't really what you wanted.
As for 0001, it seems simpler to me to put the 'userid' variable in the
same scope as 'onerel', and then compute it just once and don't bother
with it at all afterwards, as in the attached.
