The problem is that the new tuple version is checked only against the

Yeah, that's confusing :(.
Bit more than just normal rule confusion I'd say. Try the following two
statements in parallel (assuming you've just run the previous):
UPDATE test SET dt='c';
UPDATE test SET dt='x' FROM test t2 WHERE test.id=t2.id AND t2.dt='b';
This isn't a problem with the view mechanism - it's a problem with
re-checking clauses involving subqueries or joins I'd guess.
I'm trying to decide if it's unexpected or just plain wrong, and I think
I'd have to argue wrong.
