I think this would just be dead code as of HEAD. With the recent
changes in the definition of have_relevant_joinclause, if we get into
make_rels_by_clause_joins there should always be at least one other
relation that the old_rel is considered to join to. In any case,
I don't see the point of adding more logic to make_rels_by_clause_joins
unless it allows us to take out as much or more work elsewhere.
