The buildfarm members that are running force_parallel_mode = regress
are not happy with this. Apparently, even a trivial SELECT <expression>
can be turned into a Gather plan if force_parallel_mode says so.
I assume (haven't looked) that I could hack the plpgsql code to prevent
generating a parallel plan when it's decided the command is a simple
SELECT. But I wonder whether that's the right place to fix it. Does
it ever make sense to parallelize a plan that can't possibly benefit?
IOW I am not sure that we should carry force_parallel_mode this far.
regards, tom lane
