Well, I can't find anything wrong :-(.  There are some differences in
the list of contained keys, but they're all up near the end of the
range, which is consistent with the assumption that the table is live
and had some changes between your two dumps of the index.  In
particular, there's no difference in the entries for the troublesome
key value:

38635629                24080   25
38635629                24080   26
38635629                24080   27

So I dunno what to make of it.  If it happens again, we need to look
more closely.

Well, it's been working wonderfully since the REINDEX, so I don't know what to say. Any idea if having a too small max_fsm_pages could hose an index, because I know that happened not too long before we started seeing this problem. The fsm settings were increased prior to the problem occurring, but it's possible the index was already damaged?
