Well, the fact that it's a planner runtime problem and not a
quality-of-plan problem is new information (I'd been assuming the
latter).  Given that, it's possible it's already fixed:
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=ca2d6a6cef5740b29406980eb8d21d44da32634b
but I'd still want to see a test case to be sure.  In any case,
it's not clear what's the critical difference between the "fast" and
"slow" versions of the query.
