Description:        Partitioning does not work with PREPARE
Details:

Partitioning does not work with PREPARE. The following
statements show the effect:

CREATE TABLE master
(
  p_id int2 NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (p_id)
) WITHOUT OIDS;

CREATE TABLE partition_0
(
  PRIMARY KEY (p_id),
  CONSTRAINT mod CHECK ( p_id  = 0::smallint )
) INHERITS (master)
WITHOUT OIDS;

CREATE TABLE partition_1
(
  PRIMARY KEY (p_id),
  CONSTRAINT mod CHECK ( p_id  = 1::smallint )
) INHERITS (master)
WITHOUT OIDS;

INSERT INTO partition_0 VALUES (0);

INSERT INTO partition_1 VALUES (1);



EXPLAIN SELECT p_id FROM master WHERE p_id=1::smallint ;
                                              QUERY PLAN

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
 Result  (cost=0.00..10.65 rows=2 width=2)
   ->  Append  (cost=0.00..10.65 rows=2 width=2)
         ->  Index Scan using master_pkey on master  (cost=0.00..4.82 rows=1
width=2)
               Index Cond: (p_id = 1::smallint)
         ->  Index Scan using partition_1_pkey on partition_1 master
(cost=0.00..5.82 rows=1 width=2)
               Index Cond: (p_id = 1::smallint)
(6 rows)



PREPARE foo(int2) AS SELECT p_id FROM master WHERE p_id=$1::smallint;
EXPLAIN EXECUTE foo(1);
                                              QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
 Result  (cost=0.00..16.47 rows=3 width=2)
   ->  Append  (cost=0.00..16.47 rows=3 width=2)
         ->  Index Scan using master_pkey on master  (cost=0.00..4.82 rows=1
width=2)
               Index Cond: (p_id = $1)
         ->  Index Scan using partition_0_pkey on partition_0 master

Well, no.  How would you expect the prepared plan to know which
partition to look in, for a key value it doesn't have yet?
