Given that it's apparently showing the results of asind as NULL, the
theory that comes to mind is some sort of optimization issue affecting
the output tuple's null-flags.  I have no idea why only this test would
be affected, though.  Anyway, a good way to test that theory would be
to see if the -O level affects it.
