Sorry, I meant COLUMN_NAME (internally I'm collecting all values from
COLUMN_NAME into a field definition, that's where the error comes from).
That column will e.g. contain something like "lower(name)" for a
function based index, so I don't see a reason why it couldn't contain
"bar varchar_pattern_ops"
In both cases it's not the column's name any longer
