That is what pg_dump does when talking to pre-7.2 databases. But it isn't
entirely reliable because oid wrap can allow the user to create objects
with oids < datlastsysoid. (If it was BootstrapOid you were thinking of,
that doesn't work at all because the system casts are added after the
bootstrap stage.)
