Sorry for all this crap, this is bullocks.
reason was, one of internal functions didn't filled out length value,
and since the type is variable length, we had trouble.
Postgres wasn't copying anything, since length was 0, hence the NULL -
>key.
So here's little request. Could someone please put
Seems like decompress and compress were offending here, simply
removing them from gist index create helped.
But, I still get on explain analyze that seqscan was used, rather
than gist. Even tho ~ operator is defined for gist, and that seqscan
is set to false.

Ok, Thanks for that. Script works great.

Just start a normal session and then attach to the backend process with
gdb in a separate window. There's no reason to fool with a standalone
backend for 99.99% of debugging problems. Wi
As in subject.
What it does, it gets through picksplit, I return good values, valid unions,
etc. Than (I guess) postgres is trying to insert another value in tree, hence
penalty is called. Why one of the values penalty is called with is NULL, and
I have no idea if that's valid.
