Hm, I think it's a bug.  It's probably not very significant because
MaxIndexTuplesPerPage is an overestimate (it doesn't account for index
special space), but it's wrong AFAICS.

That Assert hasn't been there very long, either --- seems to have been
added in 877b0887.  Heikki, did you have some specific reason for writing
it like that?
