Yeah, exactly. ExecInitExpr builds an ExprState tree that mirrors the
structure of the Expr tree but contains all the run-time-variable data.
This tree is what's now being passed to ExecQual.
The problem is that outfuncs.c knows about all the Expr node types and
none of the ExprState types, there being no need to dump the latter in
normal use. There is a valid argument that we ought to support dumping
PlanState and ExprState trees for debugging purposes, but it just seems
like more maintenance effort than it's worth ...

"p *(Node *) ptr" ought to do it.
