Hi,

Is it correct behaviour that unnamed table-level check constraints get the
names '$1', '$2', '$3', etc. in Postgres 7.0.3???

Eg, using table constraints:
----------------------------

test=# create table test (temp char(1) NOT NULL, CHECK (temp IN ('M',
'F')));
CREATE
test=# select rcname from pg_relcheck;
rcname
$1
(1 row)

And, even worse - I think this has got to be a bug:
---------------------------------------------------

test=# create table test (temp char(1) NOT NULL, CHECK (temp IN ('M',
'F')));
CREATE
test=# create table test2 (temp char(1) NOT NULL, CHECK (temp IN ('M',
'F')));
CREATE
test=# select rcname from pg_relcheck;
 rcname
--------
 $1
 $1
(2 rows)

Two constraints with the same name!!!!

And if you use column constraints:
----------------------------------

test=# create table test (temp char(1) NOT NULL CHECK (temp IN ('M', 'F')));
CREATE
test=# select rcname from pg_relcheck;
  rcname
-----------
 test_temp
(1 row)
