That's normal. VACUUM FULL creates new index pointers for the tuples it

That explains it... and yes, REINDEX did bring the index size back to
normal.
Would it make sense to mention this in docs of VACUUM FULL? Either at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/routine-vacuuming.html
or at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/sql-vacuum.html
Yeah, maybe. Want to suggest a wording?
