I think this schema is nuts.  Do you have a practical use for something
like this?

I am tempted to fix this by dictating that you can't join a table as a
partition if the partitioned table contains an FK that references that
table.

FWIW the patch I have fixes all the other reported problems with FKs and
partitioned tables, but not this one.
