I've minimally tested it against PostgreSQL 8.1devel on i686-pc-linux-gnu,
compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5).

Barring any objections, I'll apply this to HEAD tomorrow.

Perhaps you could rename indices_size to indexes_size. A quick google search on "site:postgresql.org indices" and "site:postgresql.org indexes" shows that indices is used much less (7,080) than indexes (23,400). Top hits for indices are 7.1 docs, for indexes it's 7.3 and 7.4.
It seems to me that indexes is the term more commonly used with postgresql.
