all the conditions (local and remote) should be part of fdw_outerpath as
well, since that's the alternate local path, which should produce (when
converted to the plan) the same result as the foreign path.
fdw_outerpath should be a local path set when paths for
outerjoinpath->parent was being created. Am I missing something?
I assumed by mistake that only the remote conditions were evaluated in a
plan created from each fdw_outerpath. Sorry for that. I think that is
a good idea!
Btw, IIUC, I think the patch fails to adjust the targetlist of the top
plan created that way, to output the fdw_scan_tlist, as discussed in [1]
(ie, I think the attached patch is needed, which is created on top of
your patch pg_fdw_join_v8.patch).
