Seems not. I've done millions of iterations of the same type of
functionality that happens with these structures and haven't produced a
single case. These are fairly low usage structures, so I think I've done
about 3 months worth of work, which in production had 20 bad tuples. I
tried playing with various delays, vacuum schedules, and number of
parallel processes.

Whatever is happening is from interaction not contained within the
structures showing the symptoms.

I'll watch it a bit closer now that I know the problem exists to see if
I can find a pattern.
