I think this part remains unanswered: why are there *three* invalid
indexes, and not two?  It makes sense for the UNIQUE indexes to acquire
invalid duplicates, but strangely we also have a
act_re_procdef_deployment_id_idx_ccnew which is *not* unique.  What
happened there?

(I also wonder if it wouldn't make more sense to reindexdb to attempt to
drop indexes that it couldn't complete.)
