Clearly a bug --- the wrong type OIDs are being passed down to
array_append. It should be told that it's getting called as
(angle_vectors[], angle_vectors) returns angle_vectors[]
but what it's actually getting told is
(vector, angle_vectors) returns vector
which naturally makes it spit up because "vector" isn't an array type.
I don't think control ever reaches your custom finalfunc at all.
For my edification, why does this work?:
test[5442]=# select version();
version
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 9.6.0 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (SUSE Linux)
4.8.3 20140627 [gcc-4_8-branch revision 212064], 32-bit
(1 row)
test[5442]=# select avg((random(), random())::angle_vectors);
avg

Probably somebody fat-fingered this while refactoring code in the
aggregate/windowfunction area. Possibly me :-(. Haven't found
exactly where things are going off the rails, but it's clearly
a PG bug. Thanks for the report!
