I am not sure, but I would think about something related to gist here

If the process is still running, can you attach gdb to it and then run

I am trying a few other scenarios to see if I can reproduce. I was able to set to logged a copy of the table with no indexes. I am now attempting same with only the gist index. If I can reproduce it on a non production server I will try gdb.
Thank you much for the follow up.
