I agree.  The parent's "tdhasoid" flag is definitely based on the
existence of an ObjectIdAttributeNumber system column, not on whether the
column's name is "oid".  So doing a lookup by name to find the matching
child column is just weird, and cannot possibly lead to anything good.

Didn't really seem worth the trouble ... maybe if it gets any longer
it'd be appropriate to do that.

Yeah, I did not like that either.

Pushed with those corrections and some further fooling with the test case.
