It appears to be a non-trivial revert, because 041b96802e already
revised the relation analyze after 27bc1772fc.  That is, I would need
to "backport" 041b96802e.  Sorry, I'm too tired to do this today.
I'll come back to this tomorrow.

It would be discouraging to revert all of this.  Some items are very
simple, some items get a lot of work.  I'll come back tomorrow and
answer all your points.
