Looking at it more closely, this is likely to be fallout from the
plpgsql lexer/parser changes; it probably worked before only because
plpgsql was doing its own thing rather than using the main lexer.

VERBOSE has been reserved all along in order to distinguish
'vacuum verbose;' from 'vacuum tablename;' and so on; but it's still an
interesting pitfall for plpgsql users.
