Just noticed a mistype in the first query. Here are the correct queries:

create temp table t1 (id bigint, t bigint);

insert into t1 values (1, 1);
insert into t1 values (2, 2);
insert into t1 values (2, 3);
insert into t1 values (2, 4);
insert into t1 values (3, 5);

create temp table t2 (id bigint, t bigint);

insert into t2 (id, t)
select g, 2
from generate_series(1, 200) g;

insert into t2 (id, t)
select g, 3
from generate_series(201, 300) g;

insert into t2 (id, t)
select g, 4
from generate_series(301, 400) g;

insert into t2 (id, t)
select g, 1
from generate_series(401, 100000) g;

insert into t2 (id, t)
select g, 5
from generate_series(100001, 100100) g;

create index t_idx on t2(t);

analyze t1;
analyze t2;

explain analyze
select *
from t2
 join t1 on t1.t = t2.t
where t1.id = 2;

explain analyze
select *
from t2
 join t1 on t1.t = t2.t
where t1.id = 3;

explain analyze
select *
from t2
where t2.t in (2, 3, 4);

I've just tried these queries on PostgreSQL 9.0alpha4, nothing differs 
from PostgreSQL 8.4.
