Thanks for the reproducer. Yeah, that seems to be a bug.
nodeNamedTuplestorescan.c allocates a new read pointer for each
separate scan of the named tuplestore, but it doesn't call
tuplestore_select_read_pointer() so that the two scans that appear in
your UNION ALL plan are sharing the same read pointer. At first
glance the attached seems to fix the problem, but I'll need to look
more carefully tomorrow.
