Hmm - before 8.0 there wasn't an easy way to figure out the name of a
sequence attached to a column. This function is the easy way to do that,
but is (of course) not present in 7.x
Assuming your sequences all have default names, and are in the public
schema, you could write a simple function:
CREATE FUNCTION my_pg_get_serial_sequence(text,text) RETURNS text AS '
SELECT ''public.'' || $1 || ''_'' || $2 || ''_seq'';
' LANGUAGE SQL;
Then a quick bit of sed/perl search & replace-ing and you're away.
This *will* break if the target table (1st param) is in a different
schema than public, or if you have non-default sequence names.
