1. Please don't top-post on the PostgreSQL lists. See 
<http://idallen.com/topposting.html>

2. The system is working as designed and as documented - see the 
comments in the docs on pg_tables. If nothing is shown for the table's 
tablespace then it will be in the default tablespace for the database. 
That's what you're seeing. You appear to be assuming incorrectly that it 
means that the table will be in the system's default tablespace.
