Yeah. 7.3 and before cannot do merge or hash joins on conditions that
The first query is able to use the index on nr_proponente, because the
condition involves that column directly, the second query is not,
because the index only contains the values of nt_proponente, not results
of trunc(..)/
Try replacing that condition with something like
pa.nr_proponente B
