gin_numeric_cmp() can be called from regular SQL. I missed this before, but that function will segfault if you call gin_numeric_cmp(NULL, 1) (in v0.7 at least).
Fixed, gin_numeric_cmp is marked as strict.
And how does GIN handle SQL NULL values in the column? Does it index them at all, or just ignore them?
SQL NULL: GIN doesn't support it (amindexnulls/amsearchnulls == false)C NULL: NULL-numeric could be returned only by gin_extract_query_numeric which cannot be called by user directly because of internal type of argument. GIN doesn't do anything with values returned by gin_extract_query_numeric except providing they as an argument for comparing functions.
