I have what appears to be a corrupt RTREE index.

The first query shows that of the fifteen records I'm looking at, every one of
them has the "@" based condition showing as true. The second shows one record
that really ought to be there not being listed.

I just tried the second query with enable_indexscan = off and the missing
record reappears. So I guess this is a corrupt index.

This is 7.4.6 but the database was initdb'd with an earlier 7.4.

Should I REINDEX or should I keep this around for forensic study?
