Hi,

I haven't had any time to look at the patch yet but when compiling it 
and running the tests GCC gave me a warning. The tests passed btw.

gcc (Debian 8.3.0-6) 8.3.0

explain.c: In function ‘show_incremental_sort_group_info’:
explain.c:2772:39: warning: passing argument 2 of ‘lappend’ discards 
‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
     methodNames = lappend(methodNames, sortMethodName);
                                        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
