The attached patch adds a sentence to the asterisk item in section
4.1.4, saying that system columns are not included in * and must be

Columns section.
I built the docs locally (make check and make html) and the new text
and link render fine.
I think the section that you are patching is more for roughly mentioning
all the possible uses of various characters, but it's not the
authoritative source for what all those characters mean in detail in
those contexts. Otherwise, this could get out of hand. I would have
expected to find that for this particular case on the SELECT reference
page, but it's not mentioned there either. Maybe that page should be
updated?
