Cool.  Once you get the crash, please also capture the contents of the
index's metapage --- pg_filedump or contrib/pageinspect's bt_metap()
should do.  If the problem page isn't the metapage itself, we'll need
that info to tell if it's the root.

Actually, it might be interesting to capture the content of the problem
page itself, too, if it isn't the metapage.  "pg_filedump -i -F" or
contrib/pageinspect's bt_page_stats() + bt_page_items() should show
anything useful.
