Don't understand you. This is a clear bug in join removal, test case
attached, a minor rework of your original test case.

The bug is caused by allowing join removal to work in serializable
transactions. The fix for 9.0 is easy and clear: disallow join removal
when planning a query as the second or subsequent query in a
serializable transaction.
A wider fix might be worth doing for 9.1, not sure.
