Btree indices on prefix keys (e.g. col_name(5) meaning the first 5 characters of "col_name") were previously being replicated as indices on the full column. This can cause errors in the case of columns with values too wide to fit in indices; and regardless produces a non-equivalent schema on the target. PostgreSQL doesn't seem to have a direct equivalent for this type of index, so my fix is just to ignore these indices, as is done for non-BTREE indices.
