For the sake of completeness/reference: The backport for 8.1
(http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/gist/tsearch/V2/gin_tsearch2_81.gz)
doesn't seem to have this bug, at least on a linux x86_64 machine I can
create empty gin indexes with no problem.

And the performance is sweeeet! Thanks Oleg & Teodor!
