Hi,

+       newInfo->ii_OpclassOptions = palloc0(sizeof(Datum) *
+                                            newInfo->ii_NumIndexAttrs);

It seems we may not need to allocate these many entries (as shown by the
concur_appclass_ind_2 example in the test).
In the previous loop (starting line 1359), we can increment a counter which
would finally tell us how many oldInfo->ii_OpclassOptions[i] is not NULL.

Then that many entries can be allocated in the above code.

Cheers
