What do you mean the "strategy 'c'"?

The idea LGTM. But do you want 

+    if (clauselist_selectivity_hook)
+        s1 = clauselist_selectivity_hook(root, clauses, varRelid, jointype,
+

rather than

+    if (clauselist_selectivity_hook)
+        *return* clauselist_selectivity_hook(root, clauses, ..)


?
