the first case you insert
row number 1 value 1
row number 2 value 2
when update
row number 1 value 1 + 1=2 produces duplicate

the second case you insert
row number 1 value 2
row number 2 value 1
when update
row number 1 value 2 + 1=3
row number 1 value 1 + 1=2
OK!!!

perhaps you need define your constraint deferrable

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/sql-createtable.html

DEFERRABLE
NOT DEFERRABLE

This controls whether the constraint can be deferred. A constraint
that is not deferrable will be checked immediately after every
command. Checking of constraints that are deferrable can be
postponed until the end of the transaction (using the SET
CONSTRAINTS
<http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/sql-set-constraints.html>
command). NOT DEFERRABLE is the default. Currently, only UNIQUE,
PRIMARY KEY, EXCLUDE, and REFERENCES (foreign key) constraints
accept this clause. NOT NULL and CHECK constraints are not deferrable.

INITIALLY IMMEDIATE
INITIALLY DEFERRED

If a constraint is deferrable, this clause specifies the default
time to check the constraint. If the constraint is INITIALLY
IMMEDIATE, it is checked after each statement. This is the default.
If the constraint is INITIALLY DEFERRED, it is checked only at the
end of the transaction. The constraint check time can be altered
with the SET CONSTRAINTS
<http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/sql-set-constraints.html>
command.
