Here second part of the comment (but have not yet advanced ..) seems
to be slightly misleading because this state has nothing to do with
the advancement of scan keys.
I have not changed this because I am not sure what you have in mind.

I have verified all your changes and they look good to me.

I have tried and it works for me on latest code except for one test
output file which could have been excluded. I wonder whether you are
first applying the GUC related patch [1] before applying the optimizer
support related patch. In anycase, to avoid confusion I am attaching
all the three patches with this e-mail.

I have rebased the optimizer/executor support related patch.
