I would not be comfortable with reviewing an entire module with the
intention of shipping it in a stable branch on Monday, even if I had
nothing else to do between now and then. I think the only sane way
to get this into 9.5.2 would be to slip the release date, and that
seems rather counterproductive. We need to get this fix into the
hands of users ASAP.

I fear our only realistic course of action is to publish release
notes along the lines of "if you use any of list-of-affected-locales,
you should REINDEX btree indexes on text/varchar/bpchar columns".
