I don't believe that it's plancache's fault; the real problem is that
plpgsql is keeping "simple expression" execution trees around longer
than it should. Your patch masks the problem by forcing those trees to
be rebuilt, but it's the execution trees not the plan trees that contain
stale data.
I'm not immediately sure why plpgsql_subxact_cb is failing to clean up
correctly in this example, but that seems to be where to look.
