Thanks, Emre. The btree_gist extension seems to be just what I was looking for.
I found it necessary to add the gist_text_ops opclass for the inequality:
CREATE TABLE person (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
"user" TEXT,
email TEXT NOT NULL,
EXCLUDE USING gist (email WITH =, "user" gist_text_ops WITH <>)
WHERE ("user" IS NOT NULL));
