In any case the more idiomatic way of writing your query these days (since 9.4 came out) is:

SELECT *
FROM pg_constraint pc
LEFT JOIN LATERAL generate_series(1, case when contype in ('f','p','u') then array_upper(pc.conkey, 1) else 0 end) gs ON true;


Supposedly ​should work back to 9.3​, mis-remembered when LATERAL was released.
