Are you splitting this into 2 patches here because there are 2
separate issues?  If so, what are those issues?  There seem to be a
bunch of interrelated changes here but I haven't seen a clear
explanation of which ones are needed for which reasons.

I agree that fixing ExecInitPartitionInfo to use the right RT index in
the first place sounds like a better idea than trying to piece
together which RT index we should be using after-the-fact, but I need
to better understand what problems we're trying to fix here before I
can be sure if that's the strategy I want to endorse...
