Hm. I can't immediately think of anything CCA relevant in the patch. I do wonder if it's possible that this is a consequence of indcheckxmin. The unique index is created just before the failing statement, after the table has had a couple updates. And the following statement succeeds. Currently index inferrence ignores indexes that aren't yet valid according to checkxmin. I'm tempted to think that is a mistake. I think we should throw an error instead; possbily at execution rather than plan time. It'll be rather confusing for users if a INSERT ... ON CONFLICT fails shortly after an index creation, but not later. Not that an error message will make them happy, but it'll be much less confusing.
