Well, SET CONSTRAINTS potentially needs to check the state of any
outstanding constraints whose state changes from deferred to immediate. I
don't think we can say that it sets a constraint to immediate, but doesn't
check outstanding instances because they were from an outer transaction
(unless the constraint state reverted on commit which seems really odd).
