Some comments:

1. toast objects no longer show up anywhere; they are removed in the
non-system case by excluding pg_toast% schemas, and are removed in the
system case by requiring nspname = 'pg_catalog'

2. the help.c patch no longer applies due to the \dC patch recently
applied

3. the help.c patch breaks alignment of the help output.  I think the
best way to fix it would be to change [PATTERN] into something shorter
like [PAT] and add a mention to that in the first line, something like

> !     fprintf(output, _("  Modifiers: S = show system objects  + = Additional

        fprintf(output, _("             [PAT] means an optional glob-like 
pattern\n");
