Hmm, interesting idea.  Maybe a patch along these lines is a good way to
make index-list cache less brittle going forward.  However, I'm against
putting it in the stable branches -- and we should definitely not stall
an immediate fix in order to get this patch ready.  IMO we should get
Tom's patch in tree for all branches very soon, and then after the
release you can finalize this one and put it to master.
