Mutual recursion is not allowed; as far as I can determine, every
remaining case is such that any RecursiveScan node should be
referencing the nearest parent Recursion node, which is what the patch
(with the above fix) does.
If you have a counterexample I'd be interested to see it; I've spent a
significant amount of time looking at this code, and I can't find one.

create view v0 as with recursive t(id) as (select ...);
with recursive t(id) as (select ... from v0 ...) select ...;
That gives you two WITH items with the same name. You would need
additional qualification of some sort.
