This sounds familiar.  What version of Postgres are you testing this on?

Presumably something before this bug
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-sql/2008-07/msg00123.php
got fixed
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2008-07/msg00341.php
I am using 8.3.6 and it looks like the fix was only integrated in 8.4. So using 8.4 should solve the problem.

Thanks
Emmanuel
