Fix use of incorrect TupleTableSlot in DISTINCT aggregates 1349d2790 added code to allow DISTINCT and ORDER BY aggregates to work more efficiently by using presorted input. That commit added some code that made use of the AggState's tmpcontext and adjusted the ecxt_outertuple and ecxt_innertuple slots before checking if the current row is distinct from the previously seen row. That code forgot to set the TupleTableSlots back to what they were originally, which could result in errors such as:
ERROR: attribute 1 of type record has wrong type This only affects aggregate functions which have multiple arguments when DISTINCT is used. For example: string_agg(DISTINCT col, ', ') Thanks to Tom Lane for identifying the breaking commit.
