I can't repro this (with current sources):
neilc=# create tablespace foo location '/tmp/foo';
CREATE TABLESPACE
neilc=# set default_tablespace = 'foo';
SET
neilc=# create table xyz (a int primary key);
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index
"xyz_pkey" for table "xyz"
CREATE TABLE
Time: 45.838 ms
neilc=# \d xyz
Table "public.xyz"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------
a | integer | not null
Indexes:
"xyz_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (a)
Tablespace: "foo"
neilc=# \d xyz_pkey
Index "public.xyz_pkey"
Column | Type
--------+---------
a | integer
primary key, btree, for table "public.xyz"
Tablespace: "foo"
neilc=# alter table xyz drop constraint xyz_pkey;
ALTER TABLE
neilc=# alter table xyz add constraint "xyz_pkey2" primary key (a);
NOTICE: ALTER TABLE / ADD PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index
"xyz_pkey2" for table "xyz"
ALTER TABLE
neilc=# \d xyz_pkey2
Index "public.xyz_pkey2"
Column | Type
--------+---------
a | integer
primary key, btree, for table "public.xyz"
Tablespace: "foo"
