No, I don't think so. It seems to be pretty consistently happening in
our homegrown database connection class, as we are executing a query
against the PG metadata tables. Something like --

select a.attname, t.typname, a.attlen, a.atttypmod, a.attnotnull,
a.atthasdef, a.attnum
              from pg_attribute a,
                   pg_class     c,
                   pg_type      t
              where c.relname  = ?
                and a.attrelid = c.oid
                and a.attnum  >= 0
                and t.oid      = a.atttypid
                order by 1

This is happening inside DBD::Pg, the "table_attributes" method. The
relname being selected is NOT a temp table. We do make extensive use of
temp tables in the code, however.
