regular expression and index on 7.2

Hi,

I tried the following on 7.1.3-38 and pgsl used the index:

EXPLAIN
mp3base=# explain
mp3base-# select * from mp3_
mp3base-# where name ~ '^cre';
NOTICE: QUERY PLAN:

Index Scan using mp3_name on mp3_ (cost=0.00..8.14 rows=10 width=28)

On an other machine I've a psql 7.2-1 and I got this result:

mp3base=# explain
mp3base-# select * from mp3_
mp3base-# where name ~ '^cre';
NOTICE: QUERY PLAN:

Seq Scan on mp3_ (cost=0.00..2150.93 rows=363 width=794)

On both machines is this index:
CREATE INDEX "mp3_name" ON mp3_(name);

Do you have any idea why it dosn't work with 7.2 ????
And what can I do to use the index ????
(7.2 runs on a mandrake and 7.1.3 on suse
both databases are created as: createdb -E LATIN1 mp3base

Thx Holger
