In existing releases the LIMIT clause is just dropped on the floor by the parser :-(. In current CVS sources you get ERROR: LIMIT is not supported in subselects which at least lets you know you have a problem. I have a to-do item to see if this can be made to work right, but it's not very high priority. I think the correct fix is to pull LIMIT handling out of ExecutorRun and make it be handled by a new plan node type, but that'll probably take more time than I can spare before 7.1 ... regards, tom lane
