Oh ... duh.  The problem here is that ProjIndexIsUnchanged thinks that
the type of the index column is identical to the type of the source
datum for it, which is not true for any opclass making use of the
opckeytype property.

Ondřej, as a short-term workaround you could prevent the crash
by setting that index's recheck_on_update property to false.
