Consider the following sequence of commands in a psql session:

We should have seen two entries in the above listing. So looks like a bug to
me.
No, that's the way it's designed to work. It shows the objects that are
visible to you, without schema-qualifying them. See
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/app-psql.html#APP-PSQL-PATTERNS
:
Whenever the pattern parameter is omitted completely, the \d commands display
all objects that are visible in the current schema search path — this is
equivalent to using * as the pattern. (An object is said to be visible if its
containing schema is in the search path and no object of the same kind and name
appears earlier in the search path. This is equivalent to the statement that
the object can be referenced by name without explicit schema qualification.) To
see all objects in the database regardless of visibility, use *.* as the
pattern.
