I may be missing something, but no patch is attached to this
thread. Honestly I think that duplicating this code should be avoided,
and the patch to produce is not that complicated technically. So are you
planning to just duplicate hte definitions in CREATE TABLE to ALTER
TABLE? This is a recipy for forgetting updates in the future on one
page or the other...
