After further thought, I realized we could fix it far less invasively
than that, by teaching getDependencies() to translate pg_depend entries
for the pg_amop/amproc rows to look like dependencies for their parent
opfamily.  This looks messy, but in a typical database without any
custom opclasses, it's actually really cheap, because there won't be
any pg_depend entries satisfying the classid conditions.

I wasn't looking forward to back-patching the other idea, but this
patch seems like it should be pretty painless.

Again, thanks for the report!
