That looks like your primary key on list_threads is wrong. The primary
key should be on (threadid, listid) but based on that error message it
looks like it's on (threadid).
The SQL scrpit for generating the db has:
CREATE TABLE list_threads(
threadid int NOT NULL, /* comes from threadid_seq */
listid int NOT NULL REFERENCES lists(listid),
CONSTRAINT pg_list_threads PRIMARY KEY (threadid, listid)
);
But it sounds like you somehow ended up with the wrong index there?
(There should be no index named list_threads_pkey -- the name of that
primary key constraint is very strange and probably a typo in there,
but in particular it's different)
Do you still have the wrong index there, or has it been fixed at some
other time? If it has, that could explain the inability to
reproduce...

Yeah, that is clearly an incorrect fix :/
