True, although those kind of dependencies usually cause an obvious test
failure (which this patch doesn't cause). I've been thinking that
there's some value in keeping database objects creating by regression
tests around, so that we get better pg_dump coverage (a quick and dirty
pg_dump test is to dump the database created by "make installcheck" and
restore it). Admittedly this is pretty primitive, but it's better than
nothing.
