My mistake it's not gcc but clang for JIT, maybe because it could change false definition? clang version: 6.0.0-1ubuntu2 clang -E output before 7a0574b5 HeapTuple newtuple = 0; with 7a0574b5 HeapTuple newtuple = ((bool) 0); > > > - always use "if (newtuple == NULL)" rather than mixing !newtuple and > > newtuple == NULL > > Don't particularly agree with these changes though.

In the same function there's both forms a couple of lines apart: "if (!ptr)" follow by "if (ptr == NULL)", using only one form is smother on the brain, at least mine. Regards Didier
