Ouch.  Good thing we caught this now.

In principle, fixing this breaks pg_upgrade'ability for anyone who was
using the line type before (presumably by compiling with
-DENABLE_LINE_TYPE).  However, we're breaking things for them anyway by
changing the text representation, so that's probably not worth worrying
over.
