Hmm... the counter state seems to be that now these commands would tell you
they are doing something even though they are arn't really doing anything:
=> alter table test set without oids;
ALTER TABLE
=> alter table test set without oids;
ALTER TABLE
=> alter table test set without oids;
ALTER TABLE
I think popping a notice that the table is already without oids could be
helpful. for sure these types of messages should not be warnings though.
