OK. I'll take another shot using that approach. A couple questions: Is it useful to have the reference count and unreferenced counts like currently written, or should I just faithfully reproduce the original behavior (except schema aware queries) using libpq in place of libpgeasy? Is the oidjoins.sql test just the output of the make_oidjoins_check script? It is probably easier to produce that output while looping through the first time versus running a script -- should I do that? > I've looked through my notes and I can't find why I thought findoidjoins > was broken for 7.3.

As written the queries did not know anything about schemas or the newer reg* data types, e.g. this: SELECT typname, relname, a.attname FROM pg_class c, pg_attribute a, pg_type t WHERE a.attnum > 0 AND relkind = 'r' AND (typname = 'oid' OR typname = 'regproc' OR typname = 'regclass' OR typname = 'regtype') AND a.attrelid = c.oid AND a.atttypid = t.oid ORDER BY 2, a.attnum ; became this: SELECT c.relname, (SELECT nspname FROM pg_catalog.pg_namespace n WHERE n.oid = c.relnamespace) AS nspname, a.attname, t.typname FROM pg_catalog.pg_class c, pg_catalog.pg_attribute a, pg_catalog.pg_type t WHERE a.attnum > 0 AND c.relkind = 'r' AND t.typnamespace IN (SELECT n.oid FROM pg_catalog.pg_namespace n WHERE nspname LIKE 'pg\\_%') AND (t.typname = 'oid' OR t.typname LIKE 'reg%') AND a.attrelid = c.oid AND a.atttypid = t.oid ORDER BY nspname, c.relname, a.attnum Does the latter produce the desired result?
