I get the same error on HEAD too. An even simpler test case is this:
create table foo(a int);
create index foo_a_idx on foo(a);
insert into foo values (10),(NULL);
select 1 from foo where a is null and a > 10000;
?column?
----------
1
(1 row)
The problem seems to be in _bt_preprocess_keys(), which discards the
"a > 10000" predicate in favour of the "a is null" predicate on the
grounds that "null > 10000" in a nulls-last index.
It looks like a previous revision had the right check, based on the
logic that x IS NULL is incompatible with any other predicate.
