Hmm, are you using Slony? If so, you ought to take this to the Slony
mailing lists. There are various restrictions in Slony on what it
assumes can be done to a replicated table, and I believe that things
like what you are seeing are one of the possible consequences of
breaking Slony's expectations. That's about as far as my knowledge
goes though.
