I don't think that's Steve's problem, though. It's certainly
misestimating, but nonetheless the cost estimate for the seqscan is
1902749.83 versus 14819.81 for the bitmap scan; it should've picked
the bitmap scan anyway.
I tried to duplicate the problem here, without any success; I get
Bitmap Heap Scan on detail_summary ds (cost=422.01..801.27 rows=100 width=4)

so either this has been fixed by a post-8.2.3 bug fix (which I doubt,
it doesn't seem familiar at all) or there's some additional contributing
factor. Steve, are you using any nondefault planner parameters?
