That's because the query that \d issues to the backend includes: AND pg_catalog.pg_table_is_visible(c.oid) So I'd say it's not a bug, because that bit of SQL didn't get included in the query by accident. Whether it is the behavior that everybody wants is debatable, but I think it's been this way since 2002.
