Done & applied to CVS. Only dumps changed info, so:

    create table p3_def1(f1 int default 1, f2 int);
    create table c5(f1 int not null, f3 int) inherits(p3_def1);

will get dumped as:

    CREATE TABLE "c5" (
        "f1" integer NOT NULL,
        "f3" integer
    )
    inherits ("p3_def1");

ie. without the DEFAULT.
