Oh goody, more fun.  I'll take a look.

Ah, okay.  The triggering condition for both those cases is
provably-contradictory restriction clauses on an inheritance relation.
In what you showed yesterday, that was something like "x < x AND x IS
NULL", which the planner has been able to recognize as contradictory
for a long time because "<" is strict.  (It did not, and still doesn't,
notice that "x < x" all by itself is contradictory...).  But here it
looks like the trigger is

from public.b as rel4551420
where ( rel4551420.bb>rel4551420.bb ) and ( rel4551420.bb<rel4551420.bb )

It was the recent predtest improvements that allowed recognition that
bb < bb contradicts bb > bb.  So that's why this run started to fail
there, even though the bug it was tickling is much older.

                        regards, tom lane
