Indeed, I'm doing my best to restrain Greg from changing what a
datatype-specific function will see by default.  The stuff with
variable-length headers should be confined to a relatively small
number of functions in which we're willing to pay a code-ugliness
penalty for speed.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
       choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
       match
