Create a partial index like below:
test=# create table foo ( i float);
CREATE TABLE
Zeit: 1,138 ms
test=*# insert into foo select random() from generate_series(1,1000000);
INSERT 0 1000000
test=*# insert into foo values (NULL);
INSERT 0 1
test=*# create index idx_foo on foo(i) where i is null;
CREATE INDEX
test=*# explain analyse select * from foo where i is null;
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bitmap Heap Scan on foo (cost=5.51..4690.89 rows=5000 width=8) (actual
time=0.037..0.038 rows=1 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: (i IS NULL)
-> Bitmap Index Scan on idx_foo (cost=0.00..4.26 rows=5000 width=0)
(actual time=0.033..0.033 rows=1 loops=1)
Index Cond: (i IS NULL)
Total runtime: 0.068 ms

Maybe there are other solutions...
