Bug #60469: reported problem on PowerPC with PostgreSQL

["Oliver Elphick" <olly@lfix.co.uk>]

Georg Bauer <gb@hugo.westfalen.de> reported the following bug, which I
cannot reproduce on Intel architecture:

============================================================================
Title: typeidTypeRelid: Invalid type - oid = 0 when trying to look at tables

Package: postgresql
Version: 6.5.3-12
Severity: important

All commands that try to work on table parameters don't work because of the
given error message. If I do the following:

\d pg_class

I get the mentioned error message. This occurs always when the oid of a table 
is
accessed, as it seems. This for example breaks the code that lists available 
tables
in pgaccess.

bye, Georg
