... this patch breaks the expectation set at the top of describe.c:
* Support for the various \d ("describe") commands. Note that the current
* expectation is that all functions in this file will succeed when working
* with servers of versions 7.4 and up. It's okay to omit irrelevant
* information for an old server, but not to fail outright.
Do you really need WITH RECURSIVE for this? If so, I'd suggest
applying it only when relkind == RELKIND_PARTITIONED_TABLE, so
that the case doesn't happen in servers too old to have WITH.
That's probably a win performance-wise anyway, as I have no doubt
that the performance of this query is awful compared to what it
replaces, so we don't really want to use it if we don't have to.
