We have this para in the CREATE TABLE docs, commented out, as shown. It
seems to have been like that for a long time (see
<http://anoncvs.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql/doc/src/sgml/ref/create_table.sgml?annotate=1.48>).
Surely we should either include it or remove it. Having it commented out
in the docs seems like just noise.

<!-- <para> <productname>PostgreSQL</> automatically allows the created table to inherit functions on
tablesabove it in the inheritance hierarchy; that is, if we create table <literal>foo</literal> inheriting from
<literal>bar</literal>,then functions that accept the tuple type <literal>bar</literal> can also be applied to
instancesof <literal>foo</literal>. (Currently, this works reliably for functions on the first or only parent
table,but not so well for functions on additional parents.) </para>
