I reproduced the issue on a new/fresh cluster like this:

./postgres -D data -c autovacuum_naptime=1 -c autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor=0.005 -c log_autovacuum_min_duration=-1
psql -h /tmp postgres -c "CREATE TABLE t(i int); INSERT INTO t SELECT generate_series(1,99999); CREATE INDEX ON t(i);"
time while psql -h /tmp postgres -qc 'REINDEX (CONCURRENTLY) INDEX t_i_idx'; do :; done&
time while psql -h /tmp postgres -qc 'ANALYZE pg_attribute'; do :; done&
