bitmapped index with "parallel" OK?

Tried to send this but I never saw it on the mail list.  So I've forwarded
it.  Sorry if this ends up as a double post.

I'm creating bitmapped indexes on a non-partitioned table.  If I add
"parallel" to the mix of options I get an end-of-channel and the database
takes a core dump.  If I'm creating local bitmapped indexes on a partitioned
table the parallel option is no problem.  Also, parallel does not seem to be
a problem with b-tree indexes (partitioned table or no).

I've been through the documentation and tired Google but I can't find a
definitive answer.

Is "parallel" allowed with bitmapped indexes on non-partitioned tables?
