ALTER TABLE RENAME on a sequence doesn't update the sequence_name.
I think someone looked at doing that update, but we concluded it was too
messy (mainly because ALTER RENAME is transactional but updates to a
sequence tuple aren't).
In general I'd counsel that you should ignore the sequence_name field
anyway. It's vestigial.
