Yes, it does.
But my query could also be
SELECT ...
FROM a
JOIN b ON (a.key = b.key)
LEFT JOIN c ON (c.key = a.key)
LEFT JOIN d ON (d.key=a.key)
/*new*/ , e
WHERE (b.column <= 100)
/*new*/ and (e.key = a.key) and (e.field = 'filter')
because it's constructed by an application. I needed to know if, somehow,
someway, I can "unforce" join order.
The only way to solve it so far is changing application. It must build
something like
SELECT ...
FROM b
JOIN (a JOIN e ON (e.key = a.key)) ON (a.key = b.key)
LEFT JOIN c ON (c.key = a.key)
LEFT JOIN d ON (d.key=a.key)
WHERE (b.column <= 100) and (e.field = 'filter')
Supossed that e.field has (should have) better selectivity. But now this
problem belongs to programmer's group :-)
The query, in fact, has more tables to join. I wonder if lowering geqo
threshold could do the work...
Thank you. Greetings. Long life, little spam and prosperity!

Just out of curiosity, does it do any better with the following?
SELECT ...
FROM a
JOIN b ON (a.key = b.key)
LEFT JOIN c ON (c.key = a.key)
LEFT JOIN d ON (d.key=a.key)
WHERE (b.column <= 100)
