I ran the sql and recognized what is wrong. In VALUES case, the WITH
table "t" is copied in one list and shown up in the both of
INSERT-level WITH and SELECT-level WITH. Since the transformation of
WITH clause to cheat postgres is in the parser stage currently, I
wonder if this should be done in the rewriter or the planner stage.

Thanks for the report. Next time, please point the clear problem in
English aside the sample.
