bug in create table with serial - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

In PostgreSQL 7.3b2, if I create a table like so:

create table customers (id serial primary key);

The id field will be created of type 32 bit integer, yet the upper limit
for the sequence will be relative to a 64 bit integer.

\d customers                                 Table "public.customers"    Column    |     Type     |
   Modifiers 
-------------+--------------+-----------------------------------------------------------  id          | integer      |
notnull default 
nextval('public.customers_id_seq'::text)



shop-devel=# select * from customers_id_seq;
