Hi guys,

Why postgres does not disallow creating redundants indexes ? Is it the
same behaviour in postgresql 8.3 ?

Why should it stop you?
Do you have an application that randomly generates indexes?
I'm just wondering why postgresql/mysql work like that.

You ask for a particular index, it creates the index. Why complicate the code checking for possible duplicate indexes if it's not a problem people tend to encounter?
