I don't understand the code so I can't comment on the code, but I find
the regression test changes pretty suspect. Attaching any alias list
to the RTE ought to rename the output columns for all purposes, not
just the ones we as implementers find convenient. I understand that we
have to do *something* here and that the present behavior is buggy and
unacceptable ... but I'm not sure I accept that the only possible fix
is the one you propose here.
