There is one open bug reported by Amit Kapila that I feel is important. I'd
investigated this and Simon had volunteered to fix the same.
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2012-10/msg01584.php

I'm not sure about the project policies about fixing known bugs before
minor releases, but AFAICS this one can lead to corrupt indexes and as a
consequence return wrong query results (as shown in the case by Amit). So
IMHO we should fix this.

Thanks,
Pavan
