Comment(by robe):

 Simon,

 I believe we upped the costs of functions in 1.4 or 1.5 though not as high
 as you have them set.  Right now _ST_Intersects is set to 100.  Believe it
 or not it used to be 1 which is the default of C functions.

 We didn't want to risk upping it any more without more analysis since for
 more complex tasks it might skew it unfavorably.  Which version of
 Postgres are you using?  I think the way the planner deals with cost
 matrics has changed from 8.3 - current 9.1.
