Yea, I was hoping to avoid having to manually add the FK's to the referencing 
tables (34).
Is there really no way to accomplish this without DROP CONSTRAINT ...  CASCADE, 
hacking the system-catalogs or something?
You may write a script to output those 34 FK constraints. Definitely safer than 
hacking pg_constraint.conindid .
Thanks.
