A hang of this type is usually caused by a lock conflict - some other
transaction in progress is blocking the insertion. You can
troubleshoot that by looking at pg_locks. But if that were the
explanation here, you would not have been able to drop the index.
As some of the posts you've quoted mention, it sounds like you may
have a corrupted table or index:
