I'm not concerned about it.  If you're using the default search path,
you'd see the same behavior anytime you created any object with the same
name as a pg_catalog object.  It's been like that since 7.3, and I don't
recall seeing any complaints from users (as distinct from people trying
to break things ;-)) so I'm not very worried.
