That one looks like a lot, but a quick eyeball check suggests that many
of them are in comments and/or embedded SQL fragments where they
actually represent references to the SQL datatype, and so should be
left alone.  The impression I get is that the actual typedef uses are
concentrated in a couple of contrib modules and some of the tsearch
stuff, where they'd probably not be that painful to fix.
