Right, passing correct number of columns fixes this particular problem. But
while debugging I've also discovered another related issue, when the current
implementation seems to have a few assumptions, that are not correct if we have
an index condition and a distinct column is not the first in the index. I'll
try to address these in a next version of the patch in the nearest future.
