OK, that is still happening, and looks wrong to me.  The outermost LEFT
JOIN is between this:

test=# SELECT * FROM (SELECT 1 as key1) sub1;
 key1
------
    1
(1 row)

as sub1 and this:

test=#       SELECT sub3.key3, sub4.value2
test-#         FROM (SELECT 1 as key3) sub3
test-#         LEFT JOIN
test-#           (
test(#             SELECT sub5.key5, COALESCE(sub6.value1, 1) as
value2
test(#               FROM (SELECT 1 as key5) sub5
test(#               LEFT JOIN
test(#                 (
test(#                   SELECT 1 as key6, value1
test(#                     FROM (SELECT NULL::integer as value1) sub7
test(#                     WHERE false
test(#                 ) sub6 ON false
test(#           ) sub4 ON sub4.key5=sub3.key3;
 key3 | value2
------+--------
    1 |      1
(1 row)

as sub2 joining on sub1.key1 = sub2.key3.  Yet:

test=# SELECT *
test-#   FROM (SELECT 1 as key1) sub1
test-#   LEFT JOIN
test-#     (
test(#       SELECT sub3.key3, sub4.value2
test(#         FROM (SELECT 1 as key3) sub3
test(#         LEFT JOIN
test(#           (
test(#             SELECT sub5.key5, COALESCE(sub6.value1, 1) as
value2
test(#               FROM (SELECT 1 as key5) sub5
test(#               LEFT JOIN
test(#                 (
test(#                   SELECT 1 as key6, value1
test(#                     FROM (SELECT NULL::integer as value1) sub7
test(#                     WHERE false
test(#                 ) sub6 ON false
test(#           ) sub4 ON sub4.key5=sub3.key3
test(#     ) sub2 ON sub1.key1 = sub2.key3;
 key1 | key3 | value2
------+------+--------
    1 |    1 |
(1 row)

This is on HEAD from today.  Clearly there's a problem.
