I think that code probably originated at a time when palloc(0) threw an error, and was meant to avoid any corner-case failures in the subsequent logic. I can't get very excited about the case --- it seems to me the *real* fix for this complaint is to give hstore some ANALYZE support ---
Possibly. The standard type analyze function is not used for hstore because it doesn't have an equals operator.
but if you've tested that it behaves sanely with no columns I have no objection to committing it.
