As the error message says, the cause of this is that the name type
isn't collatable in v11.  It was made so in v12, so I fixed this by
just s/attname COLLATE "C"/attname::text COLLATE "C"/ to the query
generated for v11 or older.

Also, I fixed another bug in the same function: a typo in the if-test
to check whether the remote server is v9.2 or later.  The if-test in
Corey's original version was correct, so that's my fault when updating
it to the current version.  :palmface:

Attached is a patch for that.
