Ah. You have actually created a "shell" operator varchar < varchar
by having written the commutator link. The error message could be
more helpful, perhaps, but I can't get too excited about it considering
that it's a consequence of a bogus operator definition. Either provide
the < operator or drop the COMMUTATOR property.

I don't think we'll do anything about it, no.
