BTW, if you change the test case to use the default B-Tree index AM
(by removing "USING GIST"), you'll see that VACUUM blocks on acquiring
a cleanup lock (and so the test just times out). The problem is that
GiST VACUUM just doesn't care about cleanup locks/TID recycling safety
-- though clearly it should.
