One of their functions does an insert into the table with
"nextval('xa_url_id_seq'::text)" as part of the INSERT itself, so they
aren't using that field as a SERIAL type ... just checked the CREATE TABLE
for teh table, and its defined as a "bigint NOT NULL" ...

Hmm, odd.  But maybe there are traces of a SERIAL linkage?  What do
you get from

select * from pg_depend where objid = 'xa_url_id_seq'::regclass;

# select * from pg_depend where objid = 'xa_url_id_seq'::regclass;
 classid | objid  | objsubid | refclassid | refobjid | refobjsubid | deptype
---------+--------+----------+------------+----------+-------------+---------
    1259 | 335539 |        0 |      16672 |     2200 |           0 | n
    1259 | 335539 |        0 |       1259 |   335541 |           1 | i
(2 rows)

'k, checking the docs ... deptype == i is an INTERNAL, and refobjid is what is referencing it (in this case, xa_url, as I'd expect) ... but, looking at \d for xa_url, I'm not seeing anything there to cause it ... no serial values ... the only 'default nextval()' I can find in the schema is something totally unrelated ...

next? :)
