Thanks very much for sharing the data. But now I am well and truly
confused, because I still can't reproduce your results. I get

regression=# explain analyze
select *
from search
where search_vec @@ to_tsquery('213 & E & 13 & ST & N:*');
QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bitmap Heap Scan on search (cost=76.00..80.02 rows=1 width=72) (actual time=8.119..8.119 rows=1 loops=1)
Recheck Cond: (search_vec @@ to_tsquery('213 & E & 13 & ST & N:*'::text))
-> Bitmap Index Scan on search_key (cost=0.00..76.00 rows=1 width=0) (actual time=8.113..8.113 rows=1 loops=1)

This is on 9.3 branch tip, not 9.3.9 which I don't have installed;
but I see no bug fixes related to GIN estimation in the commit logs
since 9.3.9.

Are you using any nondefault planner settings? Anything else
unusual about your installation?
