So - create a new table with this same structure, but with oids, copy
all records into new table. Retrive all the information about the old
table (keys, indexes, triggers, etc.). Delete old table, rename new
table to old name, create all needed indexes, keys, triggers,etc.

More important, you shouldn't be doing this. OIDs are not for user
consumption.

So - create a new table with this same structure, but with oids, copy
