Hi Tom,

I reported this bug a few days ago, and did not receive any follow up
e-mail,
but then, by shear coincidence Dean Rasheed referred the following two links
to me.

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2007-11/msg00323.php
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2007-11/msg00584.php

where you asked me for an example and more information.  Here it is:

create or replace function tempbug() returns int as $$
declare
  val int;
begin
  drop view if exists temp_view ;
  drop table if exists temp_table cascade;
  create temporary table temp_table(a int);
  create temporary view temp_view as select * from temp_table;
  select count(*) into val from temp_view;
  return val;
end;
$$ language plpgsql;


protocal2=> SELECT version();
                                                     version

Two questions:
1. Should I not have received an e-mail of your reply, asking for an
example?
2. When I saw your question on
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2007-11/msg00323.php , should
there not have been a reply button?

I am (obviously) new to this, but want to help where I can.
