In that case you're not really talking to a 7.4 server, but something
older --- either syntax works OK for me on 7.4.

regression=# create table client(name text);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# CREATE INDEX client__ascname__idx  ON client (TO_ASCII(lower(name),'LATIN 1'));
CREATE INDEX
regression=# select version();
                            version
