Do we know if the problem is in pg_dump, or is there no way
to pass the tgconstrrelid value in the CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER
statement?
(I've read the dev docs on RI, but I haven't seen anyplace that
documents what the arguments for the call are exactly, and a muddled
wading through the source didn't help much.)
If there are no better suggestions for the before-the-real-fix fix, I
could make RI_pre_dump() and RI_post_dump() functions that would stick
this information into another table so that I won't lose that info. (Or,
can I always rely on digging it out of the preserved fields in pg_trig?)
Thanks!
