Strange...

Anyway, Tom, Alvaro, are you planning to look at what is proposed on
this thread? I don't want to step on your toes if that's the case and
it seems to me that the approach taken by the patch is sound, using as
basic fix the addition of an AT_ClusterOn sub-command to the list of
commands to execute when rebuilding the table, ensuring that any
follow-up CLUSTER command will use the correct index.
