There's still weird behaviour, unfortunately. If you do an ALTER
SEQUENCE changing minval/maxval w/ restart in a transaction, and abort,
you'll a) quite possibly not be able to use the sequence anymore,
because it may of bounds b) DDL still isn't transactional.
At the very least that'd need to be documented.
