Thanks for the tip Greg - that's very clever! I've done this just now,
and will check back tomorrow to see if there's any corresponding error
message.

NB:  I hadn't originally realized that the system functions (ie pg_*) were
created for each database, so I had renamed only the one in the postgres
database, thinking it was global (ie I'll blame this on my Oracle days
;-)).

Now I renamed the function under one database that had been verified as
getting its stats reset on a daily basis. Hopefully tomorrow we'll get more
interesting info!
