This isn't a bug IMO; if anything, it's a bug that the old implementation
of pg_get_indexdef didn't result in acquiring any lock. Without a lock,
you're at least at risk of printing garbage information, and I suspect
crashes were not out of the question.

I rather doubt this behavior changed just in 9.3.5. That code got
rewritten during 9.3 development.
