I don't understand why lack of decoding support should cause
regression tests to fail.  I thought decoding was only being done
during WAL replay, a case not exercised by the regression tests.
A few other comments:
+#define PGRB_HKEY_PRIME            11     /* prime number used for
rolling hash */
+#define PGRB_HKEY_SQUARE_PRIME            11 * 11     /* prime number
used for rolling hash */
+#define PGRB_HKEY_CUBE_PRIME            11 * 11     * 11 /* prime
number used for rolling hash */
11 * 11 can't accurately be described as a prime number.  Nor can 11 *
11 * 11.  Please adjust the comment.  Also, why 11?
It doesn't appear that pglz_hist_idx is changed except for whitespace;
please revert that hunk.
