Use of temporary tables in functions

Hi,
 
I had some issues with previous versions of Postgresql using temporary tables in functions.
The main issue was that the both indexes pg_attribute_relid_attnam_index and pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index were always growing and I had to restart postgresql in single mode and run a REINDEX command to free some space on the disk.
 
Does the problem still exist in version 8 ?
Thanks for your answers.
 
Patrick

My Postgresql version was 7.2.3.
I guess that this was fixed in a more recent version but I could not find it in the version history...
Could anybody confirm that this was fixed.
