Oh,

I see the problem. It is because the rule backparsing utility
prints the relation name only if it is referenced by another
name (... FROM t1 X, ...).

I'll change it in the v6.5 tree to print it allways. For v6.6
I'll work on rule recompilation which requires storing the
original query text and will avoid that problem entirely.
