i think he is hacking postgres's source code to make the TODO: "allow
recompilation of views" (he send an email about that in another
thread)...

i think this is somewhat necesary to read:
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Developer_FAQ#Technical_Questions
and of course look at other files that acces that kind of info, for
example look at AlterTableNamespace() funtion in
src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c to find out for a complete example to
identify tables and views
