It seems to be deliberate:

commit 3223b25ff737c2bf4a642c0deb7be2b30bfecc6e
Author: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Date:   Mon May 6 11:57:05 2013 -0400

    Disallow unlogged materialized views.
...
    I left the grammar and tab-completion support for CREATE UNLOGGED
    MATERIALIZED VIEW in place, since it's harmless and allows delivering a
    more specific error message about the unsupported feature.
