Hello Richard and Tom,

While playing with the equivclass test, I've discovered that the next step
to define a complete set of operators in the test:
@@ -65,6 +65,7 @@
      procedure = int8alias1eq,
      leftarg = int8, rightarg = int8alias1,
      restrict = eqsel, join = eqjoinsel,
+commutator = =,
      merges
  );

produces an internal error:
ERROR:  XX000: operator 32312 is not a member of opfamily 1976
LOCATION:  get_op_opfamily_properties, lsyscache.c:149

pg_regress/equivclass BACKTRACE:

Maybe the error itself is not that unexpected, but I'm confused by a
comment above the function:
  * Caller should already have verified that opno is a member of opfamily,
  * therefore we raise an error if the tuple is not found.
  */
void
get_op_opfamily_properties(Oid opno, Oid opfamily, bool ordering_op,
                            int *strategy,
                            Oid *lefttype,
                            Oid *righttype)
{
     HeapTuple   tp;
     Form_pg_amop amop_tup;

     tp = SearchSysCache3(AMOPOPID,
                          ObjectIdGetDatum(opno),
                          CharGetDatum(ordering_op ? AMOP_ORDER : AMOP_SEARCH),
                          ObjectIdGetDatum(opfamily));
     if (!HeapTupleIsValid(tp))
         elog(ERROR, "operator %u is not a member of opfamily %u",
              opno, opfamily);

This behavior reproduced on commit a33cf1041, dated 2007-01-23, which
added "ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY", but I think it also can be reproduced on
previous commits with manual catalog editing. (The comment was added by
a78fcfb51 from 2006-12-23, which introduced operator families.)

Best regards,
Alexander
