I pushed this fix with minor adjustments.  I did not like the proposed
regression test at all: it was overcomplicated and the need for different
versions for different back branches wasn't fun either.  After some poking
around I found that the bug could be exhibited using just btree_gist's
gist_inet_ops, since the core inet_ops class indexes the same datatype and
it does have a fetch function.  So I added a test case in btree_gist.
