FWIW I was about to push it but noticed that regression tests fail with
this:

TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(!ReindexIsProcessingIndex(((indexRelation)->rd_id)))", File:
"/pgsql/source/HEAD/src/backend/access/index/indexam.c",Line: 283)
 

I just make distclean'd -- still there.  I'm gonna revert my patch and
retry.
