Hm. It's reducing the join condition to constant FALSE (since 0<>1) and
then deciding it doesn't know how to join in that case. While this is
certainly undesirable, I have to wonder about the purpose of the query.
It seems like this is just a remarkably inefficient way of performing
UNION ALL. Do you have a more real-world case where it happens?
