This is not a bug; we don't attempt to rename index columns when changing
the name of a heap column. It would create collision hazards and gain
little.
If you want to see what the columns of an index actually are, I suggest
psql's \d command. In this example it produces
regression=# \d tt_pkey
Index "public.tt_pkey"
Column | Type | Definition
--------+---------+------------
a | integer | b
primary key, btree, for table "public.tt"
