Re: index scan leads to result that is different from sec scan after upgrading to 8.3.4

Hmm.  So the problem seems to be statable as "a full-index scan on a
GIST index might fail to return all the rows, if the index has been
modified since creation".  Teodor, can you think of anything you
changed recently in that area?

I still can't reproduce the bug, but found useless recheck condition with bitmap check:

drop table if exists qq;
select 1 as st , 1::int4 as t into qq from generate_series(1,10000) as t;
create index qqidx on qq using gist (st) where t =1;
INSERT INTO qq (SELECT (4 * random())::int4, (4 * random())::int4 from generate_series(1,10000));

# explain select t, count(1) from qq where t =1 group by t;
                                 QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 GroupAggregate  (cost=19.62..633.49 rows=1 width=2)
   ->  Bitmap Heap Scan on qq  (cost=19.62..630.28 rows=640 width=2)
         Recheck Cond: (t = 1)
         ->  Bitmap Index Scan on qqidx  (cost=0.00..19.46 rows=640 width=0)
