The case I tested seems to work in 7.3 as well:
CREATE TABLE person (last_name varchar(24),
first_name varchar(24),
CONSTRAINT person_name_check CHECK (((last_name IS NOT NULL) OR
(first_name IS NOT NULL))));
CREATE TABLE person_change_history(
action VARCHAR(6),
update_date TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW(),
update_user NAME NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_USER
) INHERITS (person);
pg_dump puts the CONSTRAINT only on person, as it should. I'm testing
7.3.10 but I don't see any changes in the 7.3 CVS log that look related.
Can you put together a reproducible test case?
