Depends where you got the tupleDesc from --- if you copy it into the
parse context then it's OK in terms of not disappearing. However,
that doesn't mean it's still *valid*. Consider
begin;declare foo cursor for select * from bar;create view v1 as select * from cursor foo;end;
Now the cursor foo is no more, but v1 still exists ... what happens
when we try to select from v1?
