You can create indexes on them. It's specifically
a limitation in the fk related code. IIRC, there
were a couple of places in the triggers that
would fail on execution if you tried to reference
oid, so it now fails on creation rather than
execution of constraints. There are a bunch
of things that need to get done to those triggers
anyway, so possibly for 7.2.
