I've retested these examples with the patches I committed yesterday.
Six of the eight examples are estimated pretty nearly dead on, while the
other two are estimated about 50% too high (still a lot better than
before).  AFAICT there's no easy way to improve those estimates further;
eqjoinsel_semi just plain hasn't got enough information to know how many
matches there will be.
