FWIW I've managed to reproduce this on 10, but I had to build without
--enable-cassert. So this does trigger the issue:

$ ./configure --enable-debug --prefix=/home/user/pg-10
$ make -s clean
$ make -s -j8 install
$ pg_ctl -D /tmp/data init
$ pg_ctl -D /tmp/data -l pg.log start
$ createdb test
$ psql test < bug.sql
$ pgbench -n -c 1 -f q.sql test

where q.sql is simply

select id from natica_hdu_test
WHERE
"dec_range" <@ '[88.9999998611111,90.0000001388889)';

Haven't investigated further yet.
