intarray creates operators which take precedence over the default operators.
If you want to keep using the existing index, you have to qualify the
operators with their schema:
explain analyze select * from test where ids OPERATOR(pg_catalog.&&) array[77];
If you want to use the new versions (which don't tolerate NULLS) you
have to create in index for them:
create index test_gin2 on test using gin (ids gin__int_ops);
If you usually want the default version and only sometimes the
intarray version, you could load intarray into some other schema which
is not in your search_path, and then fully qualify the operators with
their schema when you want those ones.
