computeLeafRecompressWALData() tried to produce a uint16 WAL log field by
memcpy'ing the first two bytes of an int-sized variable. That accidentally
works on little-endian hardware, but not at all on big-endian. Replay then
thinks it's looking at an ADDITEMS action with zero entries, and reads the
first two bytes of the first TID therein as the next segno/action,
typically leading to "unexpected GIN leaf action" errors during replay.
Even if replay failed to crash, the resulting GIN index page would surely
be incorrect. To fix, just declare the variable as uint16 instead.
Per bug #14295 from Spencer Thomason (much thanks to Spencer for turning
his problem into a self-contained test case). This likely also explains
a previous report of the same symptom from Bernd Helmle.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
