Yeah, this should have been dealt with as an open item, but it
slipped through the cracks.  We'll make sure to get it fixed,
one way or another, for 12.1.

In view of the proposed patches being dependent on some other
13-only changes, I wonder if we should fix v12 by reverting
d25ea0127.  The potential planner performance loss for large
partition sets could be nasty, but failing to plan at all is worse.
