Renaming a table leaves orphaned implicit sequences which breaks pg_restore.

Hello.

I use PostgreSQL 7.4.2 on i386-portbld-freebsd5.2, compiled by GCC cc (GCC) 3.3.3 [FreeBSD] 20031106

Description:
It seems that renaming tables with columns of type "serial" leaves
"orphaned" implicit sequences which breaks pg_restore.

How to reproduce:

1. Create a table

CREATE DATABASE something1;
CREATE DATABASE something2;
\c something1
CREATE TABLE test1 (id serial, name char(12));
ALTER TABLE test1 RENAME TO test2;

2. Run dump/restore and get an error:

$ pg_dump -Fc something1 | pg_restore -d something2
pg_restore: NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "test2_id_seq" for "serial" column "test2.id"
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR:  relation "test1_id_seq" does not exist

Workaround:
Do not use the "serial" data type, always create sequences explicitly.
pg_dump always generates a "CREATE SEQUENCE" clause for explicit
sequences.
