I was trying this patch on back-branches and found that it doesn't
apply cleanly beyond PG11, so created separate patches for 10 and 9.6.
Further, I found that the test for this patch was not failing for
9.6 (without the patch) even though the code doesn't deal with this
problem. On further investigation, I found that it is because the
commit
655393a022bd653e2b48dbf20b69236981e35195 has not been backpatched to
9.6. I don't see any reason why we shouldn't backpatch this commit.
So, I have attached a patch (fix_parallel_hash_path_v1.patch) which we
can backpatch in 9.6.
Robert, your input will be highly appreciated here especially for the
back patch (to 9.6) I am proposing?

On again looking at this patch, I found that the test case in the
patch was not sufficient to reproduce the problem reported here, so I
have changed the test on the lines of what is reported in this thread.
