I think you need to have a word with the Slony boys. They shouldn't be
marking the operator oprcanhash if they aren't providing a valid hash
opclass for the datatype. Per the manual:
: To be marked HASHES, the join operator must appear in a hash index
: operator class. This is not enforced when you create the operator, since
: of course the referencing operator class couldn't exist yet. But
: attempts to use the operator in hash joins will fail at runtime if no
: such operator class exists. The system needs the operator class to find
: the data-type-specific hash function for the operator's input data
: type. Of course, you must also supply a suitable hash function before
: you can create the operator class.
