I think you just need to put something like
UPDATE pg_type SET typcollation = (SELECT oid FROM pg_collation WHERE
collname = 'default') WHERE typname = 'citext';
into the upgrade script.
The discussion last time was whether there should be ALTER TYPE support
for that, but I guess we settled on not bothering.
