Looking into why. It looks to me that the reason is that query_tree_mutator (likewise query_tree_walker) fails to visit query->windowClause, which is a bug of the first magnitude if we allow those to contain expressions. Not sure how we've missed that up to now. Looking at struct Query, it seems like that's not the only questionable omission. We're also not descending into Node *utilityStmt; /* non-null if commandType == CMD_UTILITY */ List *groupClause; /* a list of SortGroupClause's */ List *groupingSets; /* a list of GroupingSet's if present */ List *distinctClause; /* a list of SortGroupClause's */ List *sortClause; /* a list of SortGroupClause's */ List *rowMarks; /* a list of RowMarkClause's */ Now probably this is never called on utility statements, and maybe there is never a reason for anyone to examine or mutate SortGroupClauses, GroupingSets, or RowMarkClauses, but I'm not sure it's any business of this module to assume that. regards, tom lane
