Well, that eliminates the theory I had, which was that string comparison
was messing up because of incompatible locale/encoding choices.
I think you may have found a PG bug. Can you duplicate the misbehavior
if you dump the data and reload it into a fresh database? (Note you'll
probably need to re-ANALYZE to get back to the same query plans.) If
so, would you be willing to send me the dump off-list? If the data is
not too sensitive, this'd probably be easier than trying to find a
smaller test case.
