Well, changing '&&' to '||' breaks the stated comment of the patch, namely:
          /* must not match CREATE TRIGGER ... EXECUTE PROCEDURE */

I assume this is an accepted quirk of previous_word() since we have
this existing similar code:

/* DROP, but watch out for DROP embedded in other commands */
    /* complete with something you can drop */
    else if (pg_strcasecmp(prev_wd, "DROP") == 0 &&
             pg_strcasecmp(prev2_wd, "DROP") == 0)

and the patch does seem to auto-complete a beginning EXECUTE
correctly. We could probably use a comment somewhere explaining this
quirk.
