This user already runs a patched 6.3.2 for the AS fix above.

I think you did it right.  Looks like we have a problem with views:

	test=> create view xxyz as select usesysid * usesysid from pg_shadow;
	CREATE
	test=> select * from xxyz;
	?column?
	--------
	        
	(1 row)

I will add to TODO list.  The view/rewrite system is being overhauled by
Jan, hopefully for 6.4.
