Hm ...

regression=# create extension citext;
CREATE EXTENSION
regression=# \df regexp_matches
List of functions
Schema | Name | Result data type | Argument data types | Type
------------+----------------+------------------+----------------------+--------
pg_catalog | regexp_matches | SETOF text[] | text, text | normal
pg_catalog | regexp_matches | SETOF text[] | text, text, text | normal
public | regexp_matches | text[] | citext, citext | normal
public | regexp_matches | text[] | citext, citext, text | normal
(4 rows)

Looks like somebody just fat-fingered the declaration of citext's
regexp_matches() functions: they should be marked proretset and
they ain't. Sigh. I wonder if any of the other ones are wrong.

regards, tom lane
