Actually, it turns out that NOT VALID foreign keys were already buggy here, and fixing them automatically fixes this case as well, because the fix involves touching pg_get_constraintdef to dump the flag. This also gets it into psql's \d. Patch attached. (Maybe the changes in psql's describe.c should be reverted, not sure.) -- Álvaro Herrera <alvhe...@commandprompt.com> The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.
