Hmm, this alters the semantics of amvacuumcleanup a bit. Currently in
btvacuumcleanup we invoke btvacuumscan only if btbulkdelete was not
called. This is noticed by observing whether the "stats" pointer is
NULL. However, the patch changes this a bit because
index_vacuum_cleanup is called with the results of index_insert_cleanup,
instead of a plain NULL.
Right now this is not a problem because there is no insert_cleanup
function for btree, but I wonder if we should clean it up.
FWIW there's a typo in catalogs.sgml (finction -> function)
What's the use of the FASTUPDATE parameter? Is there a case when a user
is interested in turning it off?
