Here's a patch for that.
At first I wondered if we should assume that the same param expr must have the same equality operator. If not, we should also check the operator to tell if the cache key is a duplicate, like
- if (!list_member(*param_exprs, expr)) + if (!list_member(*param_exprs, expr) || + !list_member_oid(*operators, hasheqoperator))
But after looking at how rinfo->left_hasheqoperator/right_hasheqoperator is set, it seems we can assume that: the operator is from the type cache entry which is fetched according to the expr datatype.
