Actually, can the locale idea --- it looks like a plan-instability
thing.  On my machines I get results like this:

regression=# explain SELECT conname FROM pg_constraint WHERE conrelid = 
'clstr_tst'::regclass;
                          QUERY PLAN                          
--------------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on pg_constraint  (cost=0.00..7.35 rows=1 width=64)
   Filter: (conrelid = 28856::oid)
(2 rows)

regression=# SELECT conname FROM pg_constraint WHERE conrelid = 
'clstr_tst'::regclass;
    conname     
----------------
 clstr_tst_pkey
 clstr_tst_con
(2 rows)

regression=# set enable_seqscan TO 0;
SET
regression=# explain SELECT conname FROM pg_constraint WHERE conrelid = 
'clstr_tst'::regclass;
                                            QUERY PLAN                          
                   
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using pg_constraint_conrelid_index on pg_constraint  
(cost=0.00..8.27 rows=1 width=64)
   Index Cond: (conrelid = 28856::oid)
(2 rows)

regression=# SELECT conname FROM pg_constraint WHERE conrelid = 
'clstr_tst'::regclass;
    conname     
----------------
 clstr_tst_con
 clstr_tst_pkey
(2 rows)

This is in the regression database after a completed regression run, so
it's possible that it's a bit different state from what's seen at the
instant the cluster test was running, but it sure looks like the
"expected" results are what you get from a seqscan.  Would you force a
seqscan and see what EXPLAIN shows as the cost on your machine?
