OK, I just committed patches which fixes this problem. The index
strategy code used to just check for an available operator, but I had
changed it to try an alternate strategy by looking for the same operator
with different types. But the same code gets executed even if the
restriction clause is just a function returning a boolean, with no
operator involved at all.
I now allow the operator name lookup to return a null pointer if an
alternate does not exist, and then the code stops looking for
alternatives.
So now the "random" test still fails, but in a good way with the
expected results...
