Did you actually create a "text = chkpass" function and operator?
This declaration merely promises that you will provide one eventually.
The system does not have the ability to make one for you.

I guess I am missing the point of COMMUTATOR then.  The docs say "When
you are defining a self-commutative operator, you just do it."  It
seems you need to do more than "just do it."  As far as I can tell I
will need to add another C function and another CREATE OPERATOR.
Then I can create an operator that takes args (text, chkpass) instead
of (chkpass, text).  What is the COMMUTATOR for then?  Is it just a
hint to the planner?
