INSERT ... SELECT ... LIMIT doesn't work. In existing releases the
LIMIT clause is just dropped on the floor by the parser :-(. In current
CVS sources you get
ERROR: LIMIT is not supported in subselects
which at least lets you know you have a problem. I have a to-do item
to see if this can be made to work right, but it's not very high
priority. I think the correct fix is to pull LIMIT handling out of
ExecutorRun and make it be handled by a new plan node type, but that'll
probably take more time than I can spare before 7.1 ...
