makeDependencyGraphWalker and checkWellFormedRecursionWalker
thought they could hold onto a pointer to a list's first
cons cell while the list was modified by recursive calls.
That was okay when the cons cell was actually separately
palloc'd ... but since commit 1cff1b95a
, it's quite unsafe,
leading to core dumps or incorrect complaints of faulty
WITH nesting.
In the field this'd require at least a seven-deep WITH nest
to cause an issue, but enabling DEBUG_LIST_MEMORY_USAGE
allows the bug to be seen with lesser nesting depths.
Per bug #16801 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to v13.

src/backend/parser/README Parser ====== This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries. It also creates Query structures for the various complex queries that are passed to the optimizer and then executor. parser.c things start here scan.l break query into tokens scansup.c handle escapes in input strings gram.y parse the tokens and produce a "raw" parse tree analyze.c top level of parse analysis for optimizable queries parse_agg.c handle aggregates, like SUM(col1), AVG(col2), ... parse_clause.c handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ... parse_coerce.c handle coercing expressions to different data types parse_collate.c assign collation information in completed expressions parse_cte.c handle Common Table Expressions (WITH clauses) parse_expr.c handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4 parse_func.c handle functions, table.column and column identifiers parse_node.c create nodes for various structures parse_oper.c handle operators in expressions parse_param.c handle Params (for the cases used in the core backend) parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling parse_target.c handle the result list of the query parse_type.c support routines for data type handling parse_utilcmd.c parse analysis for utility commands (done at execution time) See also src/common/keywords.c, which contains the table of standard keywords and the keyword lookup function. We separated that out because various frontend code wants to use it too.
