Is there a verdict on what can/should/will be done for this?  As far as I
can tell from all this, there appears to be no workaround (even kludgy)
other than to not build indexes in parallel - not an attractive option.

If I'm only building two indexes simultaneously, what would happen if I
tried to lock pg_class in the shorter index build transaction?  Besides
seeming like a bad idea...
