OK; but this is crashing anyway, because after const-simplification the
CTE isn't actually referenced anywhere. But it still ends up as an
initplan attached to the top plan node. This may have accidentally
failed to fail before you removed this bit in 5ce5e4a12:
if (glob->subplans != NULL)
glob->wholePlanParallelSafe = false;
I think in the current code, the equivalent thing is that we need to
consider that a plan node is parallel-unsafe once we've stuck some
initPlans on it (which happens only in createplan.c and so doesn't affect
the parallel_safe state of the source Path). Will see if that helps.
