That works for me.  I suspect you've got some nonstandard versions
of to_tsvector() hanging about.  There should only be

regression=# \df to_tsvector
                            List of functions
   Schema   |    Name     | Result data type | Argument data types | Type
------------+-------------+------------------+---------------------+------
 pg_catalog | to_tsvector | tsvector         | json                | func
 pg_catalog | to_tsvector | tsvector         | jsonb               | func
 pg_catalog | to_tsvector | tsvector         | regconfig, json     | func
 pg_catalog | to_tsvector | tsvector         | regconfig, jsonb    | func
 pg_catalog | to_tsvector | tsvector         | regconfig, text     | func
 pg_catalog | to_tsvector | tsvector         | text                | func
(6 rows)
