 Review comment:
   Now that I think more about it, I don't think this solution will work for 
the case when result from all segments on a single server is empty but across 
the servers is non empty. 
   
   The current solution would have sent. a Distinct table from the server with 
string types. However when the broker reduces distinct tables across server, it 
might choose the result column types as string if the server that sent empty 
distinct tables happens to be the 0th server. The broker has to decide the 
result column types for.the final response and it does that upfront by looking 
at the column types from first server's table since it assumes they will be the 
same (they should be in general cases except for this corner case). This will 
be wrong.
