FWIW, after a bisect I can see that 911e7020 is the origin of the
failure (`git bisect start b5d69b7 9e1c9f9` based on two merge-bases).

Yeah, guess so.  I was first betting on a missing shared inval here.
Now note that for example, this command works:
psql -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -c 'create table foo(t text); create extension pg_trgm; create index on foo using gist(t gist_trgm_ops);create index on foo using gist(t gist_trgm_ops); drop schema public cascade;'
