This isn't going to be fixed for 8.1. I think it's really a variant of
the TODO item
o %Have ALTER TABLE RENAME rename SERIAL sequence names
To my mind the appropriate fix is to come up with some arrangement
that allows the stored form of NEXTVAL(seq) to specify the referenced
sequence directly (by OID) rather than as a text string. There are some
speculations about this in the archives, but no really workable solution
yet.
(wanders off, wondering if a "regclass" literal value would help ...)
