Hum, I'm unable to reproduce the problem here; could you give me the
code for the functions in the functional indexes for tables 164956 or
227469?  They must be non-trivial SQL functions AFAICT (I'm rather
unable to figure out their shape based only on the backtrace.)

The attached patch should correct the problem, but I'd like to make sure
it does ...
