Another case of blockhead programmer. I must have been smoking something when I wrote that piece of junk. I collapsed
itinto a single query with sum(CASE WHEN DAYNUMBER = X THEN HOURS ELSE NULL) for the hours and it works like clockwork.
Sorry about the noise.

I notice that in the "before" state, the planner thinks there will be
some thousands of rows coming out of each join, but in the "after"
state only one row. Which of these is more correct? (If you are
running 7.2, it'd be helpful to show EXPLAIN ANALYZE not just
EXPLAIN results for each case.)
