For some reason a view with a select distinct, an order and an exception
by will cause pg_dump to output a double order by -- one for each select
which of course is bad SQL.

from pg_class where relkind = 't' except select relname, reltuples,
relnatts from pg_class where relkind = 't' and relnatts > 4 order by
relname;
