Seems that you need the address-of operator before ia->upper and ia->lower
(likely one of operands should be "ia->lower"). UUIDPGetDatum except pointer
as an argument, i.e. UUIDPGetDatum(&ia->upper).

I think you're on the right way. btree_gist is an extension which provides
GiST indexing of scalar datatype. UUID is one of them. So, the module you
are writing should be quite similar.
