Although select_common_type() has a failure-return convention, an apparent successful return just provides a type OID that *might* work as a common supertype; we've not validated that the required casts actually exist. In the mainstream use-cases that doesn't matter, because we'll proceed to invoke coerce_to_common_type() on each input, which will fail appropriately if the proposed common type doesn't actually work. However, a few callers didn't read the (nonexistent) fine print, and thought that if they got back a nonzero OID then the coercions were sure to work. This affects in particular the recently-added "anycompatible" polymorphic types; we might think that a function/operator using such types matches cases it really doesn't. A likely end result of that is unexpected "ambiguous operator" errors, as for example in bug #17387 from James Inform. Another, much older, case is that the parser might try to transform an "x IN (list)" construct to a ScalarArrayOpExpr even when the list elements don't actually have a common supertype. It doesn't seem desirable to add more checking to select_common_type itself, as that'd just slow down the mainstream use-cases. Instead, write a separate function verify_common_type that performs the missing checks, and add a call to that where necessary. Likewise add verify_common_type_from_oids to go with select_common_type_from_oids. Back-patch to v13 where the "anycompatible" types came in. (The symptom complained of in bug #17387 doesn't appear till v14, but that's just because we didn't get around to converting || to use anycompatible till then.) In principle the "x IN (list)" fix could go back all the way, but I'm not currently convinced that it makes much difference in real-world cases, so I won't bother for now.
