Why is it necessary to hack the portal logic at all?  The patch seems to
work for me without that.  (I've fixed quite a few bugs though, so maybe
what this is really doing is masking a problem elsewhere.)

Also, why are we forbidding wCTEs in cursors?  Given the current
definitions, that case seems to work fine too: the wCTEs will be
executed as soon as you fetch something from the cursor.  Are you
just worried about not allowing a case that might be hard to support
later?
