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
