Sure.

The thing is that I recall from long ago a case where I had a corrupted 
sl_log_x index. I forgot which PG and/or Slony versions that was. The 
specific in that case was that one and the same heap tuple showed up in 
an index scan (same ctid), but not in a sequential scan. Since then we 
have moved away from deleting and vacuuming sl_log_x and simply truncate.

What I am wondering is if you have encountered a similar case where an 
index tuple points to the wrong row and thus, the row that is missing 
isn't found in that index scan. You won't get a duplicate row if the 
wrong one it is pointing to is a deleted one.
