Oh, and text_name seems to give me this error:
 ERROR:  compressed data is corrupt

That's when I have this cast:
 CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION citext(name) RETURNS citext AS 'text_name' LANGUAGE internal IMMUTABLE STRICT;

This version does not give me an error:
 CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION citext(name) RETURNS citext AS 'SELECT text( $1 )::citext' LANGUAGE SQL IMMUTABLE STRICT;

Maybe I did something wrong?

Thanks,

David
