Oh, it coerces the type all right, just not in the direction you'd like.

regression=# create table v (f1 varchar(32) primary key);
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index "v_pkey" for table "v"
CREATE TABLE
regression=# explain select * from v where f1 = 'abc'::varchar;
                           QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using v_pkey on v  (cost=0.00..8.27 rows=1 width=34)
   Index Cond: ((f1)::text = 'abc'::text)
(2 rows)

regression=# explain select * from v where f1 = 'abc'::char(3);
                    QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on v  (cost=0.00..25.88 rows=1 width=34)
   Filter: ((f1)::bpchar = 'abc'::character(3))
(2 rows)

            regards, tom lane
