(No, a btree is not sufficient. :-) )
Where do you see that PostgreSQL has bitmap indexes?
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/indexes-types.html
PostgreSQL can combine multiple indexes and use a bitmap scan during
query execution, but this is not an on-disk bitmap index.

Perhaps if you give more information concerning your situation and
why you believe B-tree indexes are not sufficient, others on the list
might be able to provide suggestions.
