I'm not sure how you arrive at that conclusion.  The VACUUM VERBOSE
output you provided here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-performance/2007-06/msg00370.php
shows clearly that there are lots of rows in the table as well as
the indexes.  A REINDEX would certainly cut the size of the indexes
but it isn't going to do anything about the extraneous rows.

When last heard from, you were working on getting pg_filedump output for
some of the bogus rows --- what was the result?
