Temp table in PL/pgSQL was improved in 8.3 to handle this case, so you should be
covered.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/release-8-3.html

Automatically re-plan cached queries when table definitions change or statistics
are updated (Tom)
Previously PL/pgSQL functions that referenced temporary tables would fail if the
temporary table was dropped and recreated between function invocations, unless
EXECUTE was used. This improvement fixes that problem and many related issues.

Are you using EXECUTE or doing a straight CREATE TEMP TABLE ...?
Maybe a sample with sensitive info changed?
The insert you mention happens in the same procedure or is there a nested
procedure?

Is there a database pooler in the mix?
Are there any other errors in the logs at the same time that might pertain?
