This is because the system is not smart enough to match up a bigint =
integer comparison with an index scan on a bigint column. Quoting the
number, '833228', should fool it sufficiently to make this work.
Incidentally, it seems unlikely that you need to use bigint for membership
ids, unless you plan on more than 2*10^9 members.
