NULL.There is no problem with this case on HEAD, but the patch modified its return value. I’m not sure if it would
bringnew problems. Have you checked it?
Good observation, basically, my check says that any field in the tuple
is toasted then prepare the key tuple, actually, after that, I should
recheck whether the key field specifically toasted or not and if it is
not then we can continue returning NULL. I will fix this in the next
version.
