Thanks for the test case Sveinn and thanks Dilip for analyzing.

That's correct.

Yes.

Yes, partitioned_rels should be copied.

Thanks for creating the patch, although I think a better fix would be to
make get_partitioned_child_rels() do the list_copy.  That way, any other
users of partitioned_rels will not suffer the same issue.  Attached patch
implements that, along with a regression test.

Added to the open items.

Thanks,
Amit
