Problem Description:
--------------------
This problem come from pg6.2.
cluster (unique index btree(4 filelds varchar(4))) not work - "cannot create unique index. Table contains non-unique
values."
In pg6.4.2 command "cluster ind_un.." destroy all indexes on the table but index "ind_un" detroy fields form 2...
In pg6.5 - random one from:
1) ERROR: cannot create unique index. Table contains non-unique values.
2) pgReadData() -- backend closed ... (need restart frontend)
3) pgReadData() -- backend closed ... (need restart backend, frontend)
4) pgReadData() -- backend closed ... (need restart backend, frontend, remove file "temp_1ddbc".)

Test Case:
----------
=>create table sns (n1 varchar(4), n2 varchar(4), n3 varchar(4), n4 varchar(4), name text);
CREATE
=>insert into sns values ('0','00','','','a');
INSERT 278624 1
=>insert into sns values ('0','01','','','b');
INSERT 278626 1
=>create unique index sn_b on sns using btree(n1,n2,n3,n4);
CREATE
=>cluster sn_b on sns;
ERROR: Cannot create unique index. Table contains non-unique values
=>cluster sn_b on sns;
pgReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
   This probably means the backend terminated abnormally
   before or while processing the request.
We have lost the connection to backend, so further processing is impossible.
 Terminating.
