FTR, I do not like this Assert one bit.  nodeAgg.c has NO business
inquiring into the contents of internal-type Datums.  It has even
less business enforcing a particular Datum value for a SQL null ---
we have always, throughout the system, considered that if isnull
is true then the contents of the Datum are unspecified.  I think
this is much more likely to cause problems than solve any.
