Ouch! That confirms my problem. I generated the random test case because
it was easier than including the dump of my tables, but you can
appreciate that tables 20 times the size are basically crippled when it
comes to creating an index on them.
I have to say that I restored a few gigabyte dump on freebsd the other
day, and most of the restore time was in index creation - I didn't think
too much of it though at the time. FreeBSD 4.x.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
match
