Thanx,
i dont think that the issue here is to help postgresql by myself.
I can always stick to 7.2.3, or use indexes that 7.3.1 will
acknowledge, like noonf_vcode_date on noon (v_code,report_date).
(unfortunately when i create the above noonf_vcode_date index, it is only
used until
the next vacuum analyze, hackers is this an issue too???),
but these options are not interesting from a postgresql perspective :)

I cannot drop the index on the report_date since a lot of other queries
need it.
