I see it now. It is just looking for a flag in the index creation:
if (!strcasecmp(param->defname, "islossy"))
That is the extent of the lossy code. There is optimizer code checking
for it. Seems an ifdef NOT_USED around those would document what needs
to be done, and document it doesn't do anything now, or I can just leave
it alone.
