question about count(b) where b is a custom type

Hi folks

We're developing here gist index (which works finally, and I remember  
about writing some docs about it).
I have few fprintf(stderr,""") in function that converts internal  
rep. into string. I was really supprised to see them on me screen when :
select count(b) from blah where b ~ 'something';
was issued. What the hell, isn't it wrong ? I don't need strings to  
count results, right ?
IMO this is a serious bug.
What do yah think ?
