Could you provide us the EXPLAIN *ANALYZE* output of both plans?
From what I can see, one of the difference is that the estimates of
the number of rows are / 3 for this part of the query:
8.3 -> Bitmap Index Scan on keywords_index (cost=0.00..48.97 rows=574 width=0)
8.4 -> Bitmap Index Scan on keywords_index (cost=0.00..14.03 rows=192 width=0)
It might be interesting to see if 8.4 is right or not.
Before 8.4, the selectivity for full text search was a constant (as
you can see it in your 8.3 plan: the number of rows are equal in both
bitmap index scan). 8.4 is smarter which might lead to other plans.
