Here is the table declaration:
create table boys_names (       number                  serial primary key,       name                    varchar(20)
   ); 
 
the details of my installation:-
chris=# select version();                               version
------------------------------------------------------------------------PostgreSQL 7.1beta3 on i586-pc-linux-gnu,
