This had no appreciable difference in the plan. Here is the part that seems to be causing the problem again after the increase in stats. It still thinks there is only one row in the result.

I don't see any left join there ...

The first thing you should do is update to 8.2.6; we've fixed a fair
number of problems since then that were fallout from the outer-join
planning rewrite in 8.2.
If it still doesn't work very well, please post the pg_stats rows for
the join columns involved (idatrndtl.ida_trans_match_source_id and
mtchsrcprj3.id). (You do have up-to-date ANALYZE stats for both
of those tables, right?)
regards, tom lane
I know it's somewhat premature as we haven't had a chance to do the update yet, but here is what I did w/ the statistics with the current version for chuckles and grins just to see if it would make a difference in the plan.
# alter table project alter column id set statistics 1000;
ALTER TABLE
# analyze project;
ANALYZE
# alter table transaction_details alter column ida_trans_match_source_id set statistics 1000;
ALTER TABLE
# analyze transaction_details;
ANALYZE
# select * from pg_stats where (tablename='project' and attname='id') or (tablename='transaction_details' and attname='ida_trans_match_source_id');

Here is the relevant snippet from the query

left join transactions idatrn on (acc.id = idatrn.account_id)
left join transaction_details idatrndtl on (idatrn.id = idatrndtl.transaction_id)

I'll update again once we've had a chance to do the update.
