Ah, after disabling asserts I can reproduce it too. And the reason why
it fails is quite simple - clauselist_selectivity modifies the original
list of clauses, which then confuses cost_qual_eval.

Can you try if the attached patch fixes the issue? I'll need to rework a
bit more of the code, but let's see if this fixes the issue on your
machine too.

I wonder how can it work with casserts and fail without them. That's
kinda exactly the opposite to what I'd expect ...
