Hi,

The suppress_redundant_updates_trigger() works incorrectly
on the table defined with "WITH_OIDS" option.

----------
(*) The latest 8.4devel tree without SE-PostgreSQL patch

postgres=# CREATE TABLE min_updates_test (
               f1 text,
               f2 int,
               f3 int) with oids;
CREATE TABLE           ^^^^^^^^^ <- Here is different from the regression test.
postgres=# INSERT INTO min_updates_test VALUES ('a',1,2),('b','2',null);
INSERT 0 2
postgres=# CREATE TRIGGER z_min_update
           BEFORE UPDATE ON min_updates_test
           FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE suppress_redundant_updates_trigger();
CREATE TRIGGER
postgres=# UPDATE min_updates_test SET f1 = f1;
UPDATE 2
----------

The current version does not allow to update the "oid", so the older
value is preserved implicitly. However, it is done at heap_update().
Before-row-trigger functions are invoked before heap_update(), so
the field to store the "oid" is empty (InvalidOid) at the moment.
Then, suppress_redundant_updates_trigger() makes a decision there is
a difference between old and new versions.

It seems to me the older value has to be preserved just before
invocation of row-trigger functions.
Any comment?

Thanks,
