Good testing. It looks to me like you have a corrupted index. If you run
EXPLAIN ANALYSE SELECT ... for each of your queries, you'll probably see
that the one that returns no rows is using a particular index that the
other queries aren't.
Have you had any crashes / power failures / disk errors recently?
Oh - and what version of PostgreSQL is this?
