Hmm, well, the case seems to work for me in 8.1.11, but only for rather
small values of "work": the sequence is created in the public schema,
which is the wrong place for a temp object.  On looking back, this whole
area is badly broken in releases before 8.3 --- see discussion of
bug #3403:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2007-06/msg00114.php

We concluded that the fix was too invasive to risk back-patching,
so it's unlikely that anything will ever get done about it in 8.1.x
or 8.2.x.  If you really need this to work, I'd suggest updating
to 8.3.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
       choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
       match
