     The optimizer can also use a B-tree index for queries involving the
!    pattern matching operators <literal>LIKE</>,
!    <literal>ILIKE</literal>, <literal>~</literal>, and
!    <literal>~*</literal>, <emphasis>if</emphasis> the pattern is a constant
!    and is anchored to the beginning of the string &mdash; for example,
!    <literal>col LIKE 'foo%'</literal> or <literal>col ~ '^foo'</literal>,
!    but not <literal>col LIKE '%bar'</literal>.  However, if your server does
!    not use the C locale you will need to create the index with a
!    special operator class to support indexing of pattern-matching queries.
