OK, got it. I'm able to reproduce it on 8.3.

sorry, postgreSQL version is 8.4 not 9.1.
Table was created using this SQL query in pgadmin's query tool. id is foreign key in other tables.

CREATE TABLE projects
(
  id serial NOT NULL,
  name text NOT NULL,
  handler text,
  CONSTRAINT projects_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id )
)
WITH (
  OIDS=FALSE
);
