I concur with Richard that Andreas needs to solve a different problem,
but just for the record, the way you could do it is
CREATE TABLE without mentioning the default
CREATE FUNCTION
ALTER TABLE ... SET DEFAULT
Note however that pg_dump is not bright enough to deduce that you did
this. It will dump the table definition first, with the DEFAULT clause,
and so you'll have to do manual surgery on the dump file if you ever
need to reload.
