This is a known and, it turns out, not real serious bug. See, e.g.,
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2002-11/msg00486.php
I seem to recall Tom Lane noticing (uh, a few weeks ago, I think)
that the problem happens not just on system tables. I think 7.2.4 is
supposed to partially fix this, but ISTR that there is something
about it which can't be fixed without forcing a catalog change (which
forces initdb, and is therefore Not Allowed for dot-releases).
