I just got the same results as Rob, with a 6.5.0 install, and a hopefully
helpful error message:

idas_proto=> SELECT * FROM blah;
relname|attname
-------+-------
(0 rows)

idas_proto=> \d blah
ERROR:  get_ruledef of blah: unknown node type 111 in check_if_rte_used()
idas_proto=> select version();
version                                                       
--------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 6.5.0 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc 2.7.2.3
(1 row)

idas_proto=> 

So, is this fixed in 6.5.1, or is it something that needs backporting from
current?

P.S. Rob, good show, using an example pulling from the system tables: makes it
really easy for others to test.
