OK, here's the whole series of patches.
Patch 1 adds the CallerFInfoFunctionCall{1,2} functions.
Patch 2 adds btree_gist support for their use for non-varlena types
Patch 3 does the same for varlena types (Not required for patch 4, but
better to be consistent, I think.)
Patch 4 adds enum support to btree_gist
Patch 5 adds enum support to btree_gin
cheers
