The existing pattern in pg_proc.dat for variadic-text functions (e.g., jsonb_delete, json_extract_path) uses _text at the variadic position in both proargtypes and proallargtypes, with provariadic => 'text'. That is the convention documented by the sanity check in src/test/regress/sql/opr_sanity.sql.

The changes to pg_proc.dat have been in my local tree for some time. Today I also fixed the sanity check in opr_sanity so that it can now report this mismatch. Could you please take a look at my patch [1]?
