Okay, that has proved to help a lot.  I have restored the dump, and
after an analyze on natica_hdu_test I can see the failure
immediately.

I have also extracted a small test case able to reproduce the failure.
That's actually pretty close to the scenarios I was playing with
upthread, still I missed it:
CREATE TABLE rangetab (a numrange);
INSERT INTO rangetab
SELECT ('['|| (45.0 - a::numeric/10000000) || ',' ||
              (45.1 + a::numeric/10000000) || ')')::numrange
FROM generate_series(1,1000) as a;
ANALYZE rangetab;
SELECT a FROM rangetab
  WHERE a <@ '[89.9999998611111,90.0000001388889)';                 

I can easily reproduce the failure on HEAD, REL_12_STABLE and
REL_11_STABLE.  On 10, I could not.  But now that we have a test case
that's only a matter of time.
