I note that the error goes away if I do any of the following with my test case:
a) define the SRF as having no arguments, orb) make the argument passed into the SRF a constant rather than a
call to a function, orc) make the argument function (year) itself take no arguments, ord) make the argument passed to
yeara constant rather than current_date, ore) define year as VOLATILE, orf) put the call to segfault_setof into a
subqueryin the FROM clause.
So this only manifests under a pretty specific type of query tree; a
function call as the argument to another function call, which is an
argument to an inlinable SRF in FROM.
Cheers,
