Thanks Tom.
First, this wasn't a migration but new db loaded from scratch (if that
matters).
As per the end of the original post "I have vacuum analysed both
tables". I assume this is what you meant?
My gut feel was that it isn't a postgis issue since the third example I
gave uses the index, but I will take it up with them too.

Maybe you missed an ANALYZE after migrating? The plan difference
seems to be due to a vast difference in rowcount estimate for the
m_elevations condition:
-> Bitmap Heap Scan on m_elevations e
(cost=282802.21..37401439.43 rows=3512160 width=8)
-> Seq Scan on m_elevations e
(cost=10000000000.00..13296950520.12 rows=3512159563 width=8)
If you don't know where that factor-of-1000 came from, maybe take
it up with the postgis folk. It'd mostly be coming out of their
selectivity estimation routines.
