AND has precedence over OR in such expressions, so this definition is
not wrong. In any case this is not a bug, just a matter of style, and
you could as well use pg_get_constraintdef with its pretty format to
get more parenthesis around those expressions, though this would need
modifications at pgadmin level I imagine.
